“Perhaps the reason he was separated from you for a little while was that you might have him back forever”

i often feel very sad for the ultra rich. the more money they have, the more they have nothing. everyone strives and strives for meaning in life, looking for things to give them purpose and a reason to keep going. they don't realize the hole in their heart is God-shaped, and can only be satisfied by Him. our desire for eternity is because we were made for eternity; an eternity in Christ, full of Him and His wonders.
"And what do you benefit if you gain the whole world but lose your own soul? Is anything worth more than your own soul?" (Mark 8:36-37)
For God loved ((your name)) so much that He gave His one and only Son, so that if ((your name)) believes in Him, ((your name)) will not perish, but have eternal life (with Him).
(John 3:16, personalized)
transcript:
“The human soul is so large- that the world cannot fill it.” -Billy Graham
You could continually chase the pleasures of this world: money, sex, possessions, family, and still your soul would not be satisfied. Just as a blackhole consumes all in its path and remains hungry, so is your soul when filled with temporal things.
But what I give is not temporal. My Love, My life, My Everlasting Spirit. My promise of a future full of joys without end. You were built for eternity and your out for the things of eternity. Only I can feed you. Only I will satisfy.
Jesus replied, “Anyone who drinks this water will soon become thirsty again. But those who drink the water I give will never be thirsty again. It becomes a fresh, bubbling spring inside them, giving them eternal life.” -John 4:13-14

Sunday 🌞
“Get out of your routine”
Anxiety is not your routine
Depression is not your routine
Frustration is not your routine
Heartbreak is not your routine
“God is saying it is time for you to get out of your routine it's time for you to come out of that cave that you have been in and show up there fresh oil for every day there's fresh power for every day there's creativity still a sign to your name. I hear god saying it's not going to be what I did for other people that I've got a new thing that I want to do just for you and because it is a new thing I need you to be willing to break out of the old so you can step into the new….
