We continually ask God to fill you with the knowledge of his will through all the wisdom and understanding that the Spirit gives, 10 so that you may live a life worthy of the Lord and please him in every way: bearing fruit in every good work, growing in the knowledge of God, 11 being strengthened with all power according to his glorious might so that you may have great endurance and patience Colossians 1: 9b-11
Sometimes we need things to fill the gap in our lives. Last week for the first time in 817 straight weeks, I created a gap. When we look for something to fill the gaps in life, where do we turn? I assume most of us turn to television, social media, or other gap fillers that make us think less about what is actually going on in our life. I personally can turn on a radio show, or fall down the endless social media bottomless pit and escape. The problem is that I don't quite feel satisfied with all of the things I hear and see by the end. I know that God wants us to be entertained, but I also know that he wants us to fill the gap with his Word. If we spent even 10% of the time in God's word as we do in the world's entertainment, think of how much more we would fill the actual gap in our life. Focus on filling the gap this week and see where that gets you.
Have a great weekend.
Matt
