Unsatisfied?

Lisa Veach Blog 0 0

Do you have a restless, unfulfilled, perhaps unidentified need or desire deep within your heart? Does this deep yearning rise up within you, desiring fulfillment? Many people try to satisfy that need with financial success, notoriety, more toys, sex, relationships, or conquering new goals. While these may bring some fulfillment, they will never bring the deep lasting fulfillment found in a personal relationship with Christ.

Tom Brady, quarterback for the New England Patriots, expressed that unfulfilled yearning. He has three Super Bowl rings and pages of passing records. At one time he signed a contract for $48 million. He dated a number of supermodels and married one. He has everything the world has to offer: fame, prestige, power, a hot wife, and all the money he could want for many pleasures. Yet he told an interviewer on TV’s 60 Minutes, “I reached my goal, my dream, my life.  Me? I think, ‘It’s got to be more than this.’ I mean this isn’t – this can’t be all it’s cracked up to be.”1

The seventh wealthiest man in the world lives in Hong Kong. One day he stood at the top of one of his buildings feeling very empty. He phoned his wife, Ingrid, and said, “I have everything I could want on the outside. But on the inside I have nothing.” His wife said she had been thinking the same thing. She added, “I think we need to go to church.” He asked, “Is church open on Wednesdays?” She replied, “I don’t know, but we can try.” “Where is one?” he asked. She replied, “There is a church by one of our apartments. We can park there and not have to pay for parking.”2

They went and found Jesus! They developed a relationship with Him of love and obedience, and they were fulfilled. This seventh wealthiest man in the world now says of his relationship with Jesus, “This is exactly what I have been looking for all my life.”3

If you have that deep longing for satisfaction, won’t you open your heart to Jesus? He loves you and desires a deep personal relationship with you. Nothing is as rich and satisfying as a loving, obedient relationship with Jesus.
