"Why spend money on what is not bread, and your labor on what does not satisfy?" (Isaiah 55:2a NIV) All of us have this God shaped vacuum inside of us that never stops sucking things up until it is fully filled with the right thing - God. God gave us each a huge craving for Him. A craving that cannot be filled with anything but a relationship with Him!! Imagine you crave chocolate one day.... Eating French fries and cheeseburgers is not going to fulfill your craving for chocolate!
Same way with your heart - your heart longs to worship God, but if you don't know that, the emptiness in your heart feels like it needs to be filled with something. Anything. Everything. Your vacuum starts sucking and you start running after things like shopping, eating, sex, drugs, pornography, etc, and you just keep trying and trying to fill that huge craving in your heart.
Nothing can fill that craving besides Jesus Christ!! The emptiness you feel? That's your heart longing to worship God. Don't let yourself run after things that don't satisfy!! He is the BREAD OF LIFE. The only thing in this world that can fill the void in your heart!!
