God is the purist definition of “greed” in that God wants everything that is you.
God is greedy in the perfect sense of the word. And there will be no peace or satisfaction in the universe until God gets what God wants. You. And the only way God gets what God wants, which is your total being, is if you leave behind all your baggage and a the essentials you carry that you think you need.
An airline charges you for that stuff because they know you believe you need extra clothes, shoes, toothpaste, and more than 3 ounces of hair product. God says all you need is me. (Bible verse) God doesn’t charge you for this service. In fact, God has already paid the fee for you. The ticket is free too. For anywhere you go, God will be there with you; amazing you and watching out for you always until you reach your final destination: at home with God. Prayer: Lord God, I am not sure that I will ever truly understand why you want me or why you pursue me the way you do; but I am grateful that you continue to love me in such a way that you are not willing to give up on me. You truly are a wonderful parent, and it’s an honor to be your child. Amen.
