Emptiness

There’s place inside that seems impossible to fill. It’s empty and aching for something to be there. But nothing seems to fit.

Until.. you find something that fits. It’s exhilarating and you feel complete. Finally whole. At some point, it loses form. It doesn’t fit anymore.

You search again. And again. You find something different. It’s perfect. It fits.

Sadly, all those things that fit, only fit for a bit. Soon you will need something else to plug the longing for something significant, something more.

As I walk through life, I find myself continually searching for contentment within the empty places of my heart and soul.

The only contentment I find is in Christ. He allows me to fill my void with other things and people and dreams but in the end, He’s the only right fit.
