"The yearning to know what cannot be known, to comprehend the incomprehensible, to touch and taste the unapproachable, arises from the image of God in the nature of man. Deep calleth unto deep, and though polluted and landlocked by the mighty disaster theologians call the Fall, the soul senses its origin and longs to return to its source." -A.W. Tozer
Some call it a God-shaped hole. Others feel the dull ache of loneliness in a crowded room. Many try to hide the emptiness with brazen attitudes, laughter, substance, stories of conquests or loud talk. Few allow the depths of their heart to answer the calling of the depth of God.
You are made in the image of God. The gnawing, aching, tearing apart inside is your very being begging to answer the call of God for you. (Romans 8:23) And the groaning will not go unanswered. God placed the beacon of hope in your heart so you would keep searching. And you will find Him because He loves you.
"You will seek Me and find Me, when you seek Me with all your heart." -Jeremiah 29:13
