Endless Search

Quote from Charles Stanley:

"God has created a place in each of our lives that only Jesus can fill, and until He is invited to fill that place, man searches for something that will satisfy his need for love, acceptance, and satisfaction. Mankind turns to what he can sense and know in the physical and natural realm, and his restless search is endless until he invites Jesus to fill his life"

Are you on an endless search? Do you know anyone who is on an endless search? What a sad place to be: on a search with no end, no fulfillment, no promise!

The search ends when you find what you have been searching for! You can rest assured that any person in your life who does not know Him is searching for Him whether they know it or not. They may look at your live and be skeptical and leary, but something deep inside of them hopes you're right. Every other thing they have tried to fill that space has left them empty and searching!

For those of us who have invited him in already, it is a daily conscious effort to keep him in his rightful place: on the throne of our hearts. Whenever I start to feel anxious and unsettled and unfulfilled, I know that I need to return to letting his presence fill my needs!

"For he himself is our peace" Ephesians 2;14

If you need peace, this is where it's found. Search no more.

If you have someone in your life who needs peace, tell them where it can be found so that their search is not endless!
