A God Of The Heart Pt. 2 - Keith Hall

The last time I used this forum I was talking about God's desire to rule (in) your heart and that He would accept nothing less. God knows that "where your treasure is, there will your heart be also". Where is YOUR treasure and where are YOU searching for it ? I believe we are all born with a hole in our heart. No, not the medical condition of atrial septal defect. I'm referring to a spiritual hole in the heart. People spend their lives trying every man made answer to fill that hole. An endless searching through drugs, alcohol, cigarettes, sex, work, hobbies, etc. leaves them just as empty as when their quest began. They search in vain for a worldly answer to a spiritual need and Satan is only too glad to provide them with things to lead them astray. That desperate search will only end when you surrender your heart to the one who died for you and the surest sign that those various diversions are from Satan is the fact that none ever satisfy. You are always searching for another fix, a greater high, more of whatever you use to fill the void and still you return shortly afterward thirsting for more. When you come to Jesus you will thirst no more. There is nothing greater to search on for and no need to journey elsewhere. In God you are complete. The void is filled forevermore by the only one who can complete you and end your search.
