"Is there anything left in this world that will satisfy me?"

Today I decided to downloaded the free single of the week from iTunes. The song by Vedera is called “Satisfy”. Not sure if you have heard it yet, but as I was listening to it, over and over and over in the song she sings the statement “Is there anything left in this world that will satisfy me?” ……… Yeah, I don’t know what to say...there is about a million things that are going through my mind. It is one of those moments when you just want to SCREAM in a loving way at them and give them the answer of Jesus Christ. This is when I wish that I could just shout out the name of my Savior and people would understand. This world has so many broken people in it who are just looking for something to satisfy them. We all have this hole in our hearts that wants to be fulfilled. Sadly, most of us look for this satisfaction for the easy selfish pleasures that we find all around ourselves every day.

Why are we so quick to try out these “worldly pleasures” rather than just crying out to the Lord? It sounds so easy, yet we will get sucked in to the loves of the world…which only leave us feeling empty soon after.
