That empty hole

That empty hole

I believe that everyone on earth has, if you will, a whole inside them. A hole that they are trying to fill be it with material things or philosophy. This is I believe is a hole that only Christ can fill.
Today we here of young people and old going to join terrorist groups. They are in my opinion going because the world around them offers little or nothing.
Materialism and our secular society has good things within but ultimately it offers little fulfilment for those who are truly looking for meaning to life.
Pope John Paul II wrote,
“It is Jesus that you seek when you dream of happiness; He is waiting for you when nothing else you find satisfies you; He is the beauty to which you are so attracted; it is He who provoked you with that thirst for fullness that will not let you settle for compromise; it is He who urges you to shed the masks of a false life; it is He who reads in your heart your most genuine choices, the choices that others try to stifle.”

Please think about it.
