That Feeling Like There's Something More
You ever get that feeling like there is something more? That you are chasing something in life that won’t fully satisfy you? I have. Pay close attention to that feeling though, it’s from God. We see people everyday who seem to be “put together”. People that have a lot of seat time in church and maybe some who even preach to us, but many times they are also looking to be closer to God. They keep busy with religious practices and work, school, or family, but it just isn’t enough. They long for God to feel real to them.That longing is the first spiritual awakening for all of us finding our way back to God: “There’s got to be more.”When you long for a love that is deep and satisfying, when you want to give yourself to something that will truly make a difference, or when you seek answers to life’s most difficult questions, you are looking for God. You’ve really got two options: you can keep searching to fill these longings on your own, or you can look to the One who gave you those longings in the first place.If you are knocking on the door of some self-destructive behavior or relationship, you might actually have arrived at an important point in your journey back to God. Why? Because the disappointment you inevitably feel in cheap substitutes will make you wonder where you can find real love.“We love because he first loved us.”1 John 4:19 You know where He is, stop searching and look right there in front of you. Have a great week!Peace,
