Video from Joni & Friends
"At times you may feel that life should be more satisfying, more fulfilling. That feeling of dissatisfaction is a reminder that you were not made for this world. Fix your eyes on heaven, where all your longings will be satisfied." from video introduction.
C. S Lewis gave us some wisdom to follow: "If we consider the unblushing promises of reward and the staggering nature of the rewards promised in the Gospels, it would seem that Our Lord finds our desires not too strong, but too weak. We are half-hearted creatures, fooling about with drink and sex and ambition when infinite joy is offered us, like an ignorant child who wants to go on making mud pies in a slum because he cannot imagine what is meant by the offer of a holiday at the sea. We are far too easily pleased."
In this video Joni Erickson Tada talks about the feeling we all get from time to time about life. Ands she goes on to explain that we are more than our bodies, we are a soul with a body. With eternity in our hearts that is what we ultimately yearn for. Nothing you can do with your body on this earth in this life will satisfy you. It would be best if you realized that now before more sin in your life.
