Psalm 17:15 As for me, I will behold thy face in righteousness: I shall be DONE, when I awake, with thy likeness. Altered KJV

The Hebrew word for satisfied is saba` which means satiated, filled with what is described next, in this case Christ. In relationship with saba` allow me to relate this idea to Christ instructions.

In this life we can never be filled enough to contain the fullness of Christ. When He says “when I awake” in Psalm 17:15, He is referring to waking up after the long sleep, when we are collected together in paradise.
