No not that vacuum the vacuum in your life, that emptiness. Have you noticed that when you try to change a bad habit that success is illusive. That's because it creates a vacuum that just gets filled with another habit, hopefully a good one but not neccesarily. Our lives can only change when we fill that vacuum with Jesus. When we accept Him as our saviour the holy spirit fills that vacuum so we can have more success in our everyday life. We may still have some bad habits but they are easier to deal with when we have the holy spirit filling in for us when we are able to surrender it to God.
I'm also asking for prayer that I can in for gall bladder surgery real soon. I have an appt. with my surgeon Mon. afternoon so I'm hoping I can get in next week. This has been going on way too long. I want that bad boy out! Thanks. God bless! Karen

Hi Karen,
I am praying that you get your surgery scheduled real soon.  You poor thing....have they given you something to ease the pain in the meantime?

As for the devotion:  In 12 Step recovery, I have heard the need for the addictive substance, or food, as having a "hole in my soul."  Food or alcohol does not fill that hole enough, so I try more and more.  Only Jesus fits in the hole, and fills it.  I must fill it daily with His Word, or I turn to the food again, or some other behavior.

Hugs,
Trish
