For He satisfies the longing soul, and fills the hungry soul with goodness. Psalm 107:9

 What do you do when hungry? If you are like me, you find yourself headed to the kitchen or favorite restaurant to satisfy that craving for food. When hungry, your body is actually talking to you, telling you it needs nourishment to function. Once fed, that hunger disappears for a brief while until you begin to run on empty again.

 You could say the same is true when you feel an emptiness inside. Either by some event that has hurt you emotionally (maybe physically), or life has become mundane/boring and you feel as if something is missing. When that occurs, where do you go to fill yourself? Thankfully, God is in the business of filling the soul with His presence, His peace, His love, His understanding of you….when no one else does…He is right there ready to fill that void that causes life to be disrupted from the simple joy of the day or season.

 If we are faithless, He remains faithful; He cannot deny Himself. 2 Timothy 2:13

 Maybe it’s been a while since you’ve entered the throne room of grace, asking God to fill that void that has robbed you of joy and peace. He will do it. As a child of God, He never leaves you, even when you step away from your relationship with Him. He is faithful to help you, especially in time of need, such as now. Come to Him today and fill that longing so you can embrace this special season called Christmas, a time to celebrate the Savior’s birth! God bless!
