- Some people know that there is a God. They just know. They are aware of a calling, a presence, a special something about God that is in them.
- 00:19

- 00:25
- Is there a longing in your heart? Is there a soft but regular desire to be fulfilled, to be completed in a way that only being with God can accomplish?
- 00:34
- I know that feeling. I know it well. As a child, I always knew that God existed.
- 00:41
- There was always a quality in my heart that desired Him, that knew He was there, that He was out there somewhere.
- 00:48
- I can't explain it. It was something I was born with. I just needed God. I knew that I wouldn't be complete unless I was with Him and loving
- 00:57

- 01:16
- It's constant. It echoes and draws us to Him, to find Him, to know Him, to touch
- 01:22
- Him. Sometimes, we realize that everything in the world is ultimately meaningless unless we do what
- 01:29
- He wants, unless we are in His will. We can gain money and possession, but they don't satisfy.
- 01:36
- We know that when we die, it will all fall away and mean nothing. That is why we look up to the heavens.
- 01:44
- That is why we hear the voice of God calling us. Do you hear it? Do you feel its presence?
- 01:52

- 02:30
- Him. Is He calling you? Do you hear His voice in your heart? Do you want forgiveness of sins?
