Emptiness

There is a guy that I know of back at Columbia who was involved in a christian fellowship and, from all external points of view, a devout and passionate christian. His blog entry recenty wrote:

is it normal for Christians to feel empty?
Christians are called to fill that void with Christ.
Yet, I still feel empty. I believe in Jesus and His redemptive work in my life.
I accept Jesus' blood and grace. I see His mercy in my life from His wrath.
But I still feel empty.

Empty......
thinking that what I do nowadays is fruitless....
feeling like what I try to fill that with does not last for a split second....
knowing that this summer saps my strength away.... wondering...
if there's a point to all this.

I'm wishing it'll all end.
I'm desiring a new beginning.

Nothing is guaranteed, we all struggle through this crazy thing called life.
