Deep To Deep The Hearts cry for fellowship.

The emptiness in us 


The longing of our heart for love and the desire in our hearts for companionship is as a result of our missing fellowship with God. We are looking for a way to fill that void. Some of us that have married and are in a relationship realise that companionship does not satisfy that deep desire longing in your heart, because when you lie down none of you knows what goes through the other person's heart. All we do is try to bridge the gap, have a common ground. No matter the number of relationships we enter into and the company we keep, we'll still see that that longing is still there. For me it is the desire for someone to see me as I am to see that my intentions are good to see the passion in my heart, to see how much rate I put into work, no matter how much I put into making people see me they just don't interpret me very well. I have come to realise that Christ is the only one that can know one as one should be fully known. He actually knows us more than we know ourselves. Many of us have given our hearts to him but it seems that is not enough. 
You see society has defined the number of time we can spend with our loved ones with the advent of work and entertainment. A working class husband cannot spend more than 4 solid hours with his wife because sleep requires his attention, tv also craves for attention, Phone and social media are also lining up. So we see even when we realise that Christ is the only one that can quench our thirst. Society will never allow us spend adequate time with him.


So our dissatisfaction continues even with Christ...
Our Priority determines to what extent the void in our hearts will be filled. sacrifice will work. What are we willing to sacrifice? to get the optimum satisfaction we want from our relationship with Christ. There is an amount of time we will spend with him that will satisfy and carry us through the day. What are we willing to sacrifice?? 




Actually in his original intent he meant for us to lose face Luke 9:23 deny yourself, cross carried daily and follow me. Matt 11:28-30 come with your heavy burden and yoke I'll help you with them. But in exchange for those heavy burden and yoke take my yoke and learn of me. It is easy and light.
