When I feel empty,
I search around for fulfillment.
There’s none to be found!
My heart looks for joy in
Material things
When it doesn’t find fulfillment
It searches harder
When it doesn’t find fulfillment, it looks else where!

My else where’s have been nothing but disappointing…

we all think that something “out there” will give us that quick fix we need. we turn to food, drugs, shopping, or other harmful things to help us fill that gap in our hearts. Except, none of those things fill the emptiness. In fact, we end up wasting time, money and energy. We end up in a bigger mess then before. So what should we do?

I think we should stop running away. We need to find a place where we can go and practice being alone.  find a place where silence rules like  your bedroom, office, or even your car. The best way to deal with the emptiness is to discover why it is there. You can’t keep running away from yourself. Sometimes you just have to go through the pain in order to heal from it. Don’t let fear stop you from facing your problems. God can help you deal with whatever is lacking in your life. The best place to start is with him. Have a heart to heart talk with God. He wants to help you and he knows you better than anyone else. He knows your needs even before you ask him. So why not give Jesus a chance today.
