There is a saying that rich people are the most satisfied people on planet earth, because it is believed that they have everything that they need.
Unfortunately, this saying isn't so for this beautiful, successful young married woman, a mother of four children by the name of Confidence.
Confidence happens to be a great person to relate with, she is a doctor by profession, married to an accountant, and has four well brought up children.
When you look at her life, she is exactly what any one's dream come true life could be. Her husband is a very loving and caring spouse any woman would dream to have, he fills her life with so much love and joy.
Her career has it all, she is highly recommended by well doing people, and her children, they are amazing, angels in human nature.
But there is something that goes on in her life, despite of having all of this, there is an empty space in her heart, that has not been filled by all the things she has. How she wish she knew exactly what it is that she really lacks, it is a mystery.
Everyone else sees and feels the satisfaction and joy that surrounds her life, but only her sees and feels the emptiness that is eating her up.
One day she failed to go for work, so she took a day off, her children went to school and her husband went for work, she was alone home with her maid. She noticed something great about her maid as she was washing dishes while singing, she could feel something great in her worship and praising songs.
She called her maid and asked her why she was singing with so much joy, and deep happiness as she called it, " have you received any promotion or something good? Confidence asked her maid. " No madam, this joy that I have in my praising and worshipping, no earthly things can provide it, only the Creator in heaven gives this joy" the maid responded.
Confidence went in her room, looked at her achievements as a doctor, photos of her loving husband and flowers from him, photos of her, her husband and children filled with laughter and joy, she looked at the house and cars and all she has, and she wounded how all these great things Can not fill the emptiness in her life, she cried out , why am I feeling like someone who has nothing yet I have everything, and my poor maid seems more rich and satisfied than I am?
Fortunately, the maid heard her, she went and sat down with her, and said to her, "madam, this loneliness and emptiness that you feel, won't disappear till it is filled up, a new dress, food, or car will not be able to fill it up, only the Creator can fill it up, what you feel, is hunger of your soul, your soul pants for the creator, if you can talk to Him right this minute, your life will be complete.
The maid helped her pray and the emptiness disappeared and her life was complete.
Be blessed by this article.
