Try and See — Basilea Schlink

God lives and works today, but maybe you don't feel that way. Are you dissatisfied with yourself, with your life? I was until I discovered a secret in the life of Jesus. Today's meditation by Basilia Schlink can help you to find this secret too.

Dissatisfaction and the Trap of Unfulfilled Demands

Are you suffering from dissatisfaction which almost tears you apart on some days? You realize perhaps how intolerable you are, but you see no way out of this trap of the devil. Joy has disappeared from your life.

Your unfulfilled demands on life have spoiled everything for you. The more you have, the more you want. Well, you're no exception. From my own experience, I can give you advice. There's only one way to satisfaction.

Jesus Calls Us to Lose Our Lives

It has been tried out. It's the way to which Jesus Christ calls us. And he also helps us to walk this way, because he has already walked it. It's called, whoever loses his life and everything that belongs to it, that is, whoever gives up everything, will gain true life.

Yes, this way to satisfaction is characterized by letting go, by losing.

Satisfaction Through Relinquishing Possessions and Desires

Strange, and yet understandable. The more you want to have for yourself, the more dissatisfied you become. The more time and money, power and rights, strength and love you give up, the more satisfied you will be.

Finding Joy by Following Jesus

Try it and see. This tormenting dissatisfaction in your life will disappear. Joy will fill your life, because you're going the way of Jesus. No one makes so happy as Jesus does. Only those will experience this happiness, who seek it, and who go the way which will make us and others happy.

The way in his footsteps. That is, to let go of everything in order to receive everything.
