Do you ever feel an emptiness in your life? It may be in your family relationships, or it may be in the realm of religion. The missing ingredient in many lives is Jesus Christ.  He can and will fill the gaps if we let Him.  While the world seeks riches, power and pleasure to fill the void, these are found woefully deficient.  So also is religion if it is without Christ. God’s word provides that which leads to the fulfilled life. Believers are urged, “As newborn babes, desire the sincere milk of the word that ye may grow thereby.”  Many are more satisfied with the “fables and commandments of men, that turn from the truth” (Titus 1:14). 

    We are called to discipleship in baptism and instruction to “observe all things” the Lord has commanded (Matthew 28:18-19).  If your “Christianity” is just a religion, it’s a burden; but if your commitment is to Christ, He will lift your burdens and give you fulfillment and joy. Only He can fill the gaps and make your life complete.   The message this Sunday a.m.: “Is He Filling the Gaps?”
