1 Chronicles 16; Psalm 106; Matthew 19
Psalm 16: 15 (NIV)So he gave them what they asked for,
but sent a wasting disease upon them.
(msg) He gave them exactly what they asked for—
but along with it they got an empty heart.
v 36 They worshiped their idols,
which became a snare to them.

Can't help in the reading of this to think of CS Lewis' quote..'we are far too easily satisfied'.....wasting away in satisfaction, in the drive to satisfy ourselves....???....
