Searching, Searching, Searching...But For What?

Blessings and Shalom to you! So grateful that you are here. Do you feel like you are looking for something that cannot be found? You constantly look for that something more -- the next big thing-- better car, house, Gucci bag, diamonds, a hot guy-- something or someone to fill that void? You have tried everything -- you've joined a yoga class three times a week; you go clubbin' every Saturday at the hottest new clubs (VIP only please!); you meditate faithfully; you give spare change to the vagrants in your neighborhood from time to time; you're loyal; you're a good person; you look like you have it all together on the outside, but then why do you feel so empty--so 'blah' on the inside?

The love of Jesus is the only thing that can fill that void for you!

John 3:16 -- For GOD so loved the world that He gave his only begotten Son; that whosoever shall believeth on Him shall not perish but have EVERLASTING LIFE!

This scripture is so profound -- even as 'common' as it is. Not only does it free the sinner from the grips of eternal damnation, but it shows all of us that God is love -- real, true, unconditional love -- and that His love grants us access to every aspect of existence!  When God loves, it is like nothing we can ever duplicate here on earth! It is agape love or truly unconditional -- we have messed up so many times in our lives but God allows us the chance to make amends through repentance and not only does He forgive us, but He forgets that we ever did it! Who do you know in your life that will do that for you??  No one!  When you experience the Love of Jesus every single hurt, wound, bad memory, betrayal, lie, bruise -- everything is flooded with His loving glory light and erases it all!  Maybe you were molested, raped, beaten, neglected and you have buried and harbored the wounds for your whole life which you allowed to cause you to act out and do things you are not proud of thus the reason you are on your never ending conquest to find that 'something' you keep looking for--Even if you were the aggressor -- you can be flooded by the Love of God and forgiven of your sins and ENJOY the rest of your life here on this earth and when you leave this place to be with the Father in heaven! You just have to do one thing --

Fully Surrender to Christ!

How do you do that? Ask Jesus into your heart -- your life. Ask for forgiveness AND turn from your sins. Ask Him to reveal His grace to you -- His grace allows us the freedom to stop sinning. Ask Him to fill you with His love -- when you are walking in LOVE, you will look at the old you in a different way and you will not want to do the same things you used to. Any question that you have, He has the answer if you only ask Him. He knows everything about you anyway so don't be afraid to be totally honest with Him -- it is so liberating to have someone that you can tell everything to and they not look at you funny. Jesus loves you so much! He desires for you to live an abundant life. When you experience the real thing, all of the counterfeit things that are in this world will be so evident to you -- New Age, Yoga, Masonry, etc -- just ask Him to give you revelation about the things you have questions about. You will be amazed at how much knowledge will be imparted unto you. You can find a quiet place and just talk to Him like you do your friends - He is omnipresent so even as you read this, He is right there waiting for you. Jesus weeps every time another soul goes to hell. That is how much He loves us. Hell was not created for us in the first place -- it was created for the fallen angels (Satan. etc) and since Satan is trying his hardest to have plenty of company in Hell / the Lake of Fire, everyday 'good' people end up in Hell because they ignored the tugging at there heart that told them to come to Christ. That is the only way to heaven --John 4:16 "Jesus said to him, I am the Way, the Truth and the Life; no one comes to the Father except by (through) me."

Let the unconditional love of Jesus fill that void -- it is the only way to experience true peace :-)
