Set Apart in His Heart

I don't belong in this world and I am becoming more and more convinced of this. Nothing earthly will ever satisfy me and I know it. If I look around and find that none of my self desires can be fulfilled then I can conclude that I was not made for here. I was created by God in the beginning to be with him and dwell in his holy place. That is why everything I have tried to find complete and unbridged happiness in fails. That is the reason for my searching and now I know the answer.
Like any question concerning my meaning in life, Jesus is the answer. He is the only way to life and truth. To serve him is all I desire because it is the only way to insure joy and significance. My life is nothing without the beautiful blood of Christ and I will serve him always!
I am not beautiful in my self. The only thing desirable about me is Jesus. Inner beauty: no such thing! We are sinners and sin taints. Sin makes lovely things ugly. Jesus comes in and remakes lives. He makes things ravishing that without him would be a total mess. Like my life, this world is not what it should be. It is marked as unlovely by the blemishes it possesses and if we think it is going to get better by "going green" or saving wildlife, we are tragically mistaken. Helping starving people get clean water and the nutrition they need is not nearly enough either. "The poor you will always have with you..." (Matthew 26:11) Sure food and water ease the pain for a little while, but it is only temporary. Share the story of Jesus with them, and you give them an undying hope that no amount of suffering can take away from them. If you really want to help them and if you really love them, you will want more for them than just a mist that fades quickly. When you tell them of Jesus and the promise that he gives, you give them life everlasting! That is what I will strive to do until my dying day. That is the only way to become beautiful and the only way to find happiness. A happiness that you can share is real and true!
