Unsatisfied

I didn’t know anything about God,

I didn’t believe in Him.

I lived without God while I grew up…

..and I was unsatisfied with life.

So I decided to learn what I could about God,

And I learned what He was and was not.

So I found that I could believe in a God…

…but still I was unsatisfied with life.

So I went to the church that I saw down the street,

And I read the Bible each day.

I tried to live my life by His Word…

…yet still I was unsatisfied with life.

For even the demons believe in God,

And even Hitler went to church.

And Satan knows the Bible too well:

No wonder I’m unsatisfied!

So I was baptized, and I became born again,

And I was awash in the Spirit.

And I started wearing a cross ‘round my neck…

…but still, I was unsatisfied with life.

For still, I served two masters in me:

God and Mammon, heaven and earth.

One foot firmly stuck in the mire,

Even as the other I lifted on high.

So I stopped being a “believer” and became a disciple of Christ,

And now the Spirit’s not a rider but the driver of my life.

All of my mind, my heart, my soul, my life are now His…

…and finally, my life and soul are satisfied.
