We truly live in a world of hurt, and those who hurt….are in a constant search for that which brings them healing or choose those things that dull the pain. For many it is an entire life of searching . We see others around us searching for a peace that passes understanding. We long for comfort in our own life. We search for even a glimpse of normal in our lives. We see the hopeless around us. We see helpless in front of us. And perhaps we even see the emptiness in the mirror before us.
Spiritual truth: We are all created with a God Shaped hole that only He can fill. It’s an empty place that too many of us desperately try to fill with everything but him! It is a void in the heart that we try to fill with things so temporary.
When we hurt so deeply, we often lose our way and even run away from God rather than to him!
Spiritual Truth: Jesus said: “I am the only way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me” (John 14:6).
If it is peace and comfort you seek in the midst of your pain and sorrow. Run to Jesus. The simple truth is comfort, peace, and healing….lasting healing are only found in Christ.
When Jesus began to tell his disciples that they would suffer because of their faith in him, many turned away! But it was Peter who spoke the spiritual truth!
John 6:66-69 “From that time on many of His disciples turned back and no longer walked with Him. So Jesus asked the Twelve, “Do you want to leave too?” Simon Peter replied, “Lord, to whom would we go? You have the words of eternal life. We believe and know that You are the Holy One of God.”
Why look anywhere else? Our search ends with Jesus.
