POD -- "Alive"

(from P.O.D.'s Satellite album)now that i know You, i can never turn my back away
now that i see You, i can never look away
now that i know You, i can never turn my back away

now that i see You, i believe no matter what they say

Sometimes I get angry at God for not giving me everything I think I need, but how can that be?

Suppose I went to the streets preaching about how God has screwed me over... this would last about 10 seconds before I'd start to feel ridiculous. I would be proclaiming that Almighty God, omniscient and omnipotent, has done me wrong. But just admitting that He is throws a huge wrench in any game plan I might have to oppose Him or destroy His reputation.

God operates on a scale of infinitude while I can just barely deal with the issues that face me right now, today. His perspective is immeasurably grander than mine, therefore I should accept whatever He thinks is enough for me.

In any case, what can I lack as long I know Jesus Christ? I already have immeasurable, incorruptible wealth just just by being associated with Him.
