Feeling Empty Inside Is A Hidden Blessing.
One of the many reasons people turn to God is because they feel empty inside. There is a hidden blessing in this because it means a space has already been created that God can fill with love. Those who lead a very full, satisfying material existence often struggle to make room for God in their lives, even though deep down a hole exists inside them also.
The impulse to turn to God comes from our soul, deep inside us. The yearnings of the soul often go unrecognised and unanswered. A lack of love and meaning in our lives is the true underlying cause of these feelings. Deep down we have a primal desire to feel enveloped in God’s love.
Divine love comes into our souls when we pray to God sincerely for it to become part of our being. As our soul fills with love, it utterly transforms us. It reveals within us a new, deeper sense of self that we never knew existed. This is the true foundation of happiness.
Although we may feel an emptiness, since love doesn’t actually take up any space inside us then we can continue to pray for divine love for all eternity, all the while experiencing an ever closer relationship with God.
Resistance to God is built into our minds and the world around us. Finding God is not easy. Those who find their way during the brief period of our earth lives are truly blessed.
