The Hole

Each of us is born with a hole inside.  From the time we first enter this world, until the day we die, people try to fill that hole with many things;  knowledge, work, play, friendships, relationships, even drugs and alcohol.  It's the reason so many people have too much stuff.  It's why so many people seem driven in their quest for pleasure, and why others seek fulfillment in their jobs.  It's why so many seemingly sane adults flit from one unsatisfying relationship to another.  It's the reason for the rampant drug addiction and alcoholism in our world. 

No matter how hard we try to fill the hole, nothing seems to fit just right.  That's why many people are left with a tremendous yearning for something more. 

Only one Person can fill that God-sized hole inside each one of us.  "And you also are among those who are called to belong to Jesus Christ." Romans 1:6

This Thanksgiving, and as we get ready to head into the Christmas season,  I am so thankful for Jesus, the One who fills that hole in me.  He would be happy to do the same for you--just ask Him!
