“The Lord does not let the righteous go hungry, but he thwarts the craving of the wicked.” — Proverbs 10:3
“But Peter said, ‘I have no silver and gold, but what I do have I give to you. In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, rise up and walk!’” — Acts 3:6
“And leaping up he stood and began to walk, and entered the temple with them, walking and leaping and praising God.” — Acts 3:8

Have you ever wanted something so badly you couldn’t think about anything else? Maybe it's the latest phone, more followers, or even just to feel like you matter. Our culture constantly tells us that we need more to be happy. But Proverbs 10:3 reminds us that the Lord doesn’t let His people go hungry—not just physically, but spiritually too.
In Acts 3, a man who couldn’t walk asked Peter and John for money. But what he got instead was healing—something far greater. Sometimes we chase what we think we need, but God is offering us something way better: Himself.

THINK ABOUT IT
1. What are you hungry for? Is it popularity, approval, success, or love? What if those cravings are just signs pointing you to your deeper need for God?
2. God gives what we really need: The lame man thought money would fix his problem, but Jesus gave him healing and joy. Are you open to God's better plan, even if it looks different from what you asked for?
3. You have something to give: Peter had no money, but he gave what he did have—Jesus. Even as a teen, you can make a real impact just by sharing hope, encouragement, and truth with others.

BOTTOM LINE
God doesn’t just give us what we want—He gives us what we truly need. When we trust Him, He fills us with joy, strength, and purpose that no earthly thing can offer.

PRAYER
Heavenly Father, Thank You for always seeing what I really need, even when I don’t. Help me to trust You more and to be satisfied in what You give. Open my eyes to see the people around me who need hope, and give me the courage to share Your love with them. I want to live each day walking and leaping and praising You. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
