We live in a society where variety is abundant and the sky's the limit. It seems as if everyone I know is going through life with their sights fixed on the next item they will acquire. Whether it be a new possession or a new relationship, we are a craving-stricken nation. We aren't satisfied with having what we currently possess. We crave more. And more. And more.
So why do we crave more? Is there an end to this madness? In Constantly Craving by Marilyn Meberg, I learned the answer to that question is Yes! God created us just as we are and that means He created us to have desires. Every desire we have can be fulfilled by God. He can meet our needs and fill those empty spots within us so we crave no more.
This book really makes you take a look at yourself and do a self-assessment of your current cravings. The author covers all of the different cravings we have and how to turn our focus to our creator to satisfy us. This book would make a great gift to someone who is struggling with emptiness and the constant need for more.
