I taught a lesson last night at the Landing over hope, and a fulfilled life. I had the kids read John 10:10 Which is "10 The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full. " In this chapter God is referring to his sheep, and that if they enter into his gate will be saved and have a full life. What is a full life to our society today? I asked the kids that questions, I had water, grass and branches and said this is what sheep need to survive what are the three things we need as humans. The answers were good they said food, water, and shelter. But they left out of the main one, the one that created it all. The one that allows us to have those things. The world tells us to focus our attention else where, and that other things beside Christ are what we need to have a positive life. Those are lies, I searched for a long time in the things of this world that are supposed to fill you. Believe me they don't, you may be satisfied for a little bit but never truly fulfilled. Only Christ can truly satisfy that longing in our heart, and he wants to. He never leaves and wants the best for us.
Psalm 37:4 "Take delight in the LORD, and he will give you the desires of your heart."
