IF YOU ARE SEEKING FULFILLMENT... Do you feel empty? Have you tried to fill that "hollowness" with religious activity, wealth or power; or have you tried to dull yourself with chemicals or sex? The French physicist and philosopher Pascal said, "There is a God-shaped vacuum in the heart of every man which cannot be filled by any created thing, but only by God the Creator, made known through Jesus Christ." No power or possession or pleasure can satisfy the need we have had designed into us: the human person was created to be the dwelling place and intimate friend of Deity. Paul the apostle wrote to the Christian believers in the neighborhood of Colossae, "For in Christ all the fullness of the Deity lives in bodily form, and you have been given this fullness in Christ, who is the head over every power and authority." (Colossians 2:9-10 NIV) Christ Jesus will fill that void in you, if you will put your faith in Him. Get a Bible in a good modern version--such as the New American Standard, New International Version, or New King James--and ask God to SHOW you whether or not this is the truth, and what it means. Start with the Gospel of John, then go back and read straight through the New Testament. But you don't have to wait. Talk to the Lord Jesus right now. Tell Him that you give yourself to Him and you are asking Him to fill you with Himself, cleansing, re-creating, full-filling.
