Empty

Ever felt empty? Ever felt like the things in life held and contained nothing? This may be good. It may be a recognition that you no longer identify with the concerns of this world, but have yet to fill yourself up with Christ.

And so I insist—and God backs me up on this—that there be no going along with the crowd, the empty-headed, mindless crowd. They've refused for so long to deal with God that they've lost touch not only with God but with reality itself. They can't think straight anymore.
Ephesians 4:17-19
Maybe it is time to leave the crowd. Maybe it is time to no longer go along with the tribe. This is not something that you need to announce to the world, but a silent knowing that lives deep withing you. A knowing that says that you no longer need to feel empty, that there is a Creator that is ready to fill you with love, hope, creativity, and kindness. When full of these things there is nothing you can do but feel peace and joy. You find your passion in life and see what life is really all about. It is not going along with the mindless crowd and tribe who believe and see life only in one dimension. You become someone full of God, realizing God, and a person who thinks for themselves and finds God living everywhere.
Namaste'
