IMPORTANCE

Occasionally we think we are important.  Sometimes it occurs when someone appreciates us.  Appreciation turns to admiration, admiration to idolization or dependency.  Not good, for either us--or others.  Sooner or later we fail to measure up to an admirer's image of us.  Sooner or later, we fail to meet another's need for the hour.  When this occurs, all parties involved feel the sting of separation.  Ultimately there is only One Who can meet our needs and fulfill the empty space within our hearts.  Only Christ holds the piece of life's puzzle.  Christ alone.  selahV
