The earthquake riddled nation of Nepal recently learned what real needs are: today’s food and tonight’s shelter. Thousands stand in line for hours to receive their daily bread and huddle together under makeshift tents now going on 6 weeks. Meantime, far too many in our superabundantly-blessed country murmur, “Our needs aren’t being met”; which being translated means, “I want more.”<\/p>\n

Whether we’re talking about more physical wants, like a larger bank account, a bigger house, fancier trinkets, or more psychological wants, like the wife who lamented to her marriage counselor, “At first I wanted a Good Deal. What I got was an Ordeal. Now want I want a New Deal.”<\/p>\n

It seems to be the exception when we notice those who are perfectly satisfied with what they have. The problem appears to have spilled over onto church people. It’s a good thing we can choose from a smorgasbord of churches so that when “Our wants are no longer being met”, we can hopscotch over to the next church – until it runs out of steam in meeting our wants.
