Breathing deeply.... of desire.

Do you know the feeling of deep, consuming desire? You can feel it in your stomach and in your heart. It feels like an emptiness, a vacancy, waiting, longing to be filled, and only that which you long for can fill it.

I feel desire. I long for these two things, more than I can adequately express. I look for them all of the time, but don't know how I can rid myself of this longing. But, perhaps desires like these cannot be extinguished, but must be satisfied. Because these are a matter of what I was actually created for, maybe that is the only way.

Until this satisfaction comes, what do I do? How can I stop this aching of my heart? Breathe deep, and yes. Be still and know that I am God.
