The Empty Place

You have made known to me the ways of life. Acts 2:28 niv.

W e are taught to be independent, to make it on our own. Yet within each of us is a deep-­ seated frustration: I ought to be better. I believe I was made for something more; there must be more to life than this. Why am I so empty? Such feelings can cause us to struggle toward some unknown, unnamed goal. While we are told to “plan ahead,” few really think about the future. A good many people make spontaneous decisions, never considering the consequences. When their world begins to crumble, they begin to feel empty inside. Their emptiness is the absence of God in their lives. There was once a brilliant young lawyer who did not seem to find a need for God. He began to write about a famous person, hoping to find a surprising secret to his life. In the process of his research, he discovered that the man had a personal relationship with Jesus Christ, which led the young attorney on his own spiritual quest. The only answer to filling the empty place in the heart is found in God. The most important quest is our personal search for answers concerning life that will lead us to the One who created life. His name is almighty God, and He cares deeply for mankind and proved it by making a way for us to have eternal life and joy unspeakable.
