Not long ago I visited the
dean of a great American university. We looked out the window of his office and
watched hundreds of students walking to their classes. I asked the dean, “What
is the greatest problem at this university?” He thought a moment and answered,
“Emptiness.” So many people today are bored, lonely, searching for something.
You can see it in their faces.
One girl home from college
told her wealthy father, “Father, I want something but I don’t know what it
is.” That’s true of many people; we want something to meet the deepest problems
of our lives, but we haven’t found it. David said, “I have found it. I shall
not want.” The Apostle Paul expressed it, “I have learned in whatever state I
am, to be content.”
You don’t have to give up
on life, to throw up your hands and cry, “It’s no use.” You can have God’s peace, God’s joy, God’s
happiness, God’s security; and yours can become the most thrilling life in the
world.
By Billy Graham
