Hole In The Soul

"Robbie Williams once went on a shopping spree in Los Angeles. He bought seven cars including a brand new Ferrari, a brand new Porsche and a brand new Mercedes. Within a week he wished he had not bought any of them.

I admire Robbie Williams’ openness about himself. He is ruthlessly honest about his self-obsession and addictions. In his song, Feel, he sings:

I just want to feel real love …
There’s a hole in my soul
You can see it in my face
It’s a real big place

God implants this desire ‘to feel real love’ in humanity. This ‘hole in my soul’ is common to all human beings. It cannot be filled by cars, wealth, success or drugs. It is a God-shaped hole. It is a spiritual hunger and thirst. Jesus said that if we come to him and drink, he will satisfy this spiritual thirst by giving us the Holy Spirit to live within us (John 7:37)."

1. Yes, Lord, it cannot be filled with all the material things in this world. Thank You for giving the Holy Spirit to live within me.

2. Thank You for a wonderful Friday night of laughter by McCarthy. :)

3. Praise you for making my friends safe during the entire tour.
