Today's meditation is taken from:

THE GIFT OF CHRIST
by Chip Brogden

http://www.watchman.net/articles/gift.html

::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

The Scriptures tell us that hidden in Christ are "all the treasures of
wisdom and knowledge (Colossians 2:3)", "every spiritual blessing
(Ephesians 1:3)", and "all the fullness of God (Colossians 1:19)." Since
this is the truth, we maintain before God that His Gift to us is Christ,
and to the extent that we appreciate the value and preciousness of the Lord
Jesus, to that same extent will we be satisfied spiritually. We will find
fullness in the Son, and will not find it necessary to be continually
pumped up or propped up as we go about our daily walk as Christians.

Imagine the foolishness of asking God for a "few coins" to get you through
until Sunday while wealth is buried just below your feet. Or, imagine the
vanity of thinking we have to go "here" or "there" to get something from
God (such as a "blessing", a "word", an "anointing", etc) when we already
have everything He has. I will go so far as to say that when we know the
preciousness and costliness of the Lord Jesus we will not ask God for
anything else. The one who must ask God for "things" has not yet fully
appreciated the treasure he has in Christ already.
