The Big Idea:
There is a longing in the human heart for Christ. At first, it is often unrecognizable. We don’t perceive what we feel as a longing and desire for relationship with God. But we know it’s there. We might describe this feeling as an emptiness, a loneliness, a search, a journey, or an ambition. But there is an unmet need inside of us that only God can fill. We later learn that this deep yearning is the Holy Spirit that is drawing us to Christ.
Main Points:
1. There are many today, who are like the prodigal son. They thought they were missing out, they left the safety of family, church, and a relationship with God in search of the greater experience they thought they would find.
2. Many of you listening today have people in your life who have run away from faith in Jesus. They have left the faith in search of something else.
3. My encouragement to you is to keep believing. Don’t give up. Don’t stop praying. They can never get away from the presence of God.
