People need Jesus

People are funny! One of my favorite things to do is watch people. I am always amazed and intrigued by what I see. These days, people are so consumed with life that there is not much room for anything else. I remember a few months ago while at the mall with my family, I watched people go by while waiting outside the "American Girl" doll store, and I estimated that half the people that walked by me were engaged either with their phone or some type of technical device. I remember thinking to myself "So many people have a void in their lives and don't know how to fill."

One of my biggest observations in watching people, whether it is at airport, mall, grocery store, gym, or just in public in general, is that they are "empty." People are longing for fulfillment and they are willing to do almost anything to have that (temporary) fulfillment. Remember this week when you are put and about that most of the people you will see need Jesus. Take an opportunity to seed the love of Christ around your world this week.
