One of my favorite movies growing up was The Wizard of Oz. Yet it wasn’t until much later that I recognized its profound truth: the characters spent the entire journey on that yellow brick road searching for what they already possessed.

In the same way, the “wizard” of this world convinces us that we are incomplete — that we're lacking or missing out on something. This lie fuels discontentment, dulls our gratitude, and drives us to exhaust ourselves chasing the thing we already have.

If you're in Christ you already have everything you need. What more are you looking for?
