SATISFIED!

Consider PAUL as he lies in the lonely dungeon, “the prisoner of the Lord.” The chain binds him to a Roman soldier, the scars on his back still speak of “five times forty stripes, save one.” The furrows on his brow tell of perils unparalleled; the executioner is preparing the axe—the end is in view. But he is kept in perfect peace for he is saved and satisfied.He may embrace “the Son of God, who loved me, and gave Himself for me” (Gal. 2:20), and is saved.He can say: “I have learned, in whatsoever state I am, therewith to be content” (Phil. 4:11), and is satisfied.Were you to die today, would you die as an unsatisfied Nero or as a satisfied Paul?
