Thoughts for the Quiet Hour








February 4

  Thou openest thine hand, and satisfiest the desire of every living thing
        Ps. 145:16

Desire, it is a dainty word! It were much that He should satisfy the need, the want; but He goeth far beyond that. Pity is moved to meet our need; duty may sometimes look after our wants; but to satisfy the desire implies a tender watchfulness, a sweet and gracious knowledge of us, an eagerness of blessing. God is never satisfied until He has satisfied our desires.
