Psalm 131:2 - "Surely I have composed and quieted my soul; like a weaned child rests against his mother, my soul is like a weaned child within me."
The zenith of Christian maturity is when our souls are not continually wrestling with the Spirit of God within us for "more!" This is what a baby does, as they cry out when their needs aren't met. A weaned child, however, is content to rest against its mothers breasts without trying to suckle. There is a desire just to be with the mother for who she is.
Have we come to that place where we love not what God does for us but instead who He is? Beloved, God desires that our souls (our mind, emotion, and wills) be at rest with Him, trusting in His presence and not continually looking for His blessings. They will come, supernaturally, if we will but abide in Him.
