Emptiness

Have you ever fealt empty? I mean that feeling that you can stare into a haze for hours only to come to the reality that you haven't even had a thought for hours. This is a lonely and very depressing place to be. I mean for me.... I have been in one of those funks where the previously stated condition is my life. I wake up and I go to sleep in a haze. I have never fealt this way before and it has taken it's toll on me. You know it's hard when your in the middle of a "crisis" the step back and really observe yourself. I don't think we do that enough when things are normal, much less when we are totally upside down. I actually have taken a few moments over the past couple of days to look deep inside of myself and try and discover the cause of this gaping hole. I have come to discover something. We are all designed with many purposes in life, but one main one. That is to love, adore, worship, exhalt, magnify, and glorify our creator God who loves me no matter how much I love Him. Yea, I know that sounds cliche, but for me it is like a flickering candle in the midst of my darkness. My life for sometime has been void of this light that has been my very passion. How does one get to such a place can be complicated, but returning to the heart of God is as simple as opening the front door of your house allowing your best friend to enter in. Confession is good for the soul and it has freed me today. Lord, forgive me for my failings and increase my faith to trust, love and worship you with an increased passion.
