Why are we so restless? Why are we constantly searching for lasting peace and contentment yet never fully satisfied?
The bible says this happens to us for a very good reason: we are incomplete without god. If we leave him out of our lives, we have an empty place in our souls, a yearning deep inside us that only God can satisfy. No matter how hard we try, if we ignore God that hollow place stays with us, and our search for lasting peace and happiness will be futile. Centuries ago St. Augustine wrote, “You have made us for yourself, O God, and our hearts are restless until they find their rest in you”.
Luke 12:15 Then he said to them, “Watch out! Be on your guard against all kinds of greed; a man’s life does not consist in the abundance of his possessions.”
Today’s Wisdom: Communicate with your spouse, pray together daily, and reach for the bible and other books to continue to be in the word of God.
In Christ,
