-Augustine
EVERY person who has ever lived and will live-- even people who would call themselves atheists-- all have a deep-set longing for something that transcends... something outside of themselves and all that we are capable attaining physically.
"...He has put eternity in their hearts..." Ecclesiastes 3:11
The Lord God has created each of us with a built-in desire for His love. A built-in knowledge of the fact that there is more to this life than the normal, day-to-day things we experience.
All of us, naturally, at some point, will notice a hollow space in our lives; and feel this crazy, wistful, longing deep within our souls.
We scramble so desperately to fill that empty spot in our hearts; it's just so painful to ignore... but even more painful than that is the reality that all earthly, materialistic, or sensual pleasures can't and won't satisfy that craving, but instead, leave you even more depressingly empty and hungry than you were before.
That missing piece of your life can only be truly filled with the love of Jesus Christ.
It's what all mankind is searching for.
