Author Description

Regardless of your current life situation, everyone has an emptiness that creates doubt, disappointment, sadness, loneliness, pain. The emptiness continually surfaces, causing personal questioning, self-doubt, confusion, that can cause discouragement, conflict, turmoil, anger, aggression, oppression, depression, rejection, self-harm. It matters not your age, race, physique, education, finances, or social affluence--popular or neglected, everyone is continually haunted by their emptiness. The people around us and our environment influence our reaction to our emptiness. We seek to fill our emptiness. We try anything and everything that we are exposed to in an attempt to achieve happiness, success, fulfillment. We seek to fill our emptiness by overworking, overexercising, over-entertaining, overeating, social media addiction, shopping addiction, gambling addiction, alcohol, drugs, opioids, pornography. None provide the long-lasting happiness, self-worth, or fulfillment we seek. Many of our repeated practices become habits, addictions, cycles. There is only one answer and choice to truly, continually, and successfully filling your emptiness with what provides the life of acceptance and everlasting love you seek. God says, You know that in the past the way you were living was useless. It was a way of life you learned from those who lived before you. (1 Peter 1:18 ERV) This way of life was handed down to you by your own people, but, I set you free from this empty way of life. (1 Peter 1:18 NIRV) I have loved you with a love that lasts forever. I have continued loving you with a kindness that never fails. (Jeremiah 31:3) God's will and plan for your new life: Jesus said, "I came that you may have life and have it abundantly. My purpose is to give you a rich and satisfying life." (John 10:10)
