I feel so empty inside, how to start? where to start?
- i feel so empty inside
+ so god created man to share his glory , to show us the selfless love and the honest love.
+ if u feed ur body .... food, ur mind ... knowledge , and yet starve ur soul , ur life is incomplete and empty.. no matter how proseperous ur may be : why ?
because ur soul wants God- only God can satisfy ur inner longing .
+ saint Augustine said:
+ u have made us for urself , O God , and our hearts are restless until they find rest in u .
+ i was looking for u outside me , but u were in me .
+ God created us so we could have a personal realtionship with him
+ he wants to enter our lives and fill them and to know the joy of his presence and experiece it.
+ what must you do?
turn to God and confess ur sins . He has promised " I stand at the door of ur heart and knock , if anyone hears my voice nd opens the door, I'll go in and eat with him, and he with me ." ( Rev 3:20)
First: correct my vision of God :
God feeling for me :
+ this is the natural cause for God love far. " God is love" (1jn 4:3) . We are created in his image of god ... and the image of God is righteousness and true holiness( Eph 4:24)

+ " for he choose us in him before the foundation of the world , that we should be holy and without blame before him in love." (Eph 1:4)

2. God goal for creating me:

+ the main goal is to be his childern. + therefore have a strong relationship and complete communion with him.

Second: correct my sistuation/ position with God

+ Accept christ approach.. personal approach " behold i stand at the door and knock , if anyone hears my voice and open , i will come in to him and eat with him, and he with me" (Rev. 3:20)

FOR HE IS: A- very near to us . B- desires to enter our life. C- but he wants for u to invite him to enter .

+ some people do not hear him knocking on their heart because: A- they do not care B- they can not distinguish his voice.

+ soem of the people do hear, but do not open because: A- they are busy. B- postponemnet . C- laziness. D- satifed with some religious practices.

+ soem of the people desire christ to enter into their life , but do not alllow him because: A- not aware of the importantance of his invitation . B- using the excuse " i don't deserve"
