spiritual emptiness

I stumbled upon a magazine acticle featured on Karen Kong, the new and promising singer from Malaysia. Karen, a Labuan born Chinese but she sing Malay songs.



At her website, I immediately attracted to her 'Cinta Hello Kitty' ( Love Hello Kitty ).


Hello Kitty

While I like her voice because it is sweet and strong, I think the lyrics is totally un-sensisible.
The songs goes some thing like this: The girl, because of family problem ( if I am not mistaken), ran away from home, and crying for her Hello Kitty doll for help!

I mean, who would want to turn to an un-animated doll for help? Talking about idolatory. I observe that humans (not only refering to Karen), deep down in their heart, cannot run away from the urge of calling help from a believed power. At times of problems and distress, people turn to something spiritual for help! Some immediately say their prayers, atheists muttered their trouble to a 'Higher power', people cry for help to anything including their favorite doll.

Why?

Because we are made such. Don't you think so? The Maker design us in such we only can find full satisfaction from the Maker. Human long for and dying for this spiritual needs.

Those who do not know this Maker, they look for substitution (like talking to themselves or to an un-animated object).

experiment it!

Lev 23:3 Six days shall work be done: but the seventh day is the sabbath of rest, an holy convocation; ye shall do no work therein: it is the sabbath of the LORD in all your dwellings.




Just give one day to God in a week. Tell God, "I am really busy this six days but I reserve this 1 day for you so I can feel You and enjoy Your dwellings in my heart."

The Bible has taught us to do that all the while to enjoy the gift of rest! The Bible cannot be wrong in instruct us to forget all our secular works, put away our school works, keep away our college assignment and just spend time with God!

To spend time with God can simply means walking in the garden thinking of His goodness, sing praises to Him, do something good to please Him, read the bible of His Goodness, and alot others.

Try it! Experience God! and you will experience the fulfillness of the spirtual cup in our heart.

Just do it the Bible's way and you will never go wrong!
