What would you wish for if you are granted one? Ever thought of it? Not sure about you but I have on some occasions fantasize about getting not just one wish but even three, four and five. There seems to be no end to my wants, my wishes… however noble sounding they are, almost always the underlying root stems from some insecurity that I feel. Hate to admit it but one wish I had was to have more money in my bank account, I could find a thousand ‘noble’ uses for the money I wish for, needless to say, these wishes of mine are never granted.

 

I guess insecurities does affect everyone, all of us have an empty void inside of us that could only be filled by our maker. Only God can make us whole, till then we will be searching and pursuing all sorts in our quest to fill the emptiness we feel inside. Ironically, the solution is pretty simple. To receive, we must give. To be filled, we must empty ourselves; if we want to live we must be willing to die. How could we ever wish to be dead when self preservation makes more sense?

 

I say we pick up our cross and walk up the hill. Die we must that our spirit and soul be saved.
