There is some satisfaction in a self-centered life.
Some.
Fleeting.
There is some gratification in self-serving deeds.
While we can still taste the thrill.
And until it is gone.
But a year from now, it is gone.
A month from now, we have forgotten the flavor.
We have lost the feeling.
A moment from now, we want more.
Build a house for a higher purpose.
Build a place where inhabitants of earth can meet with divinity.
Build a cause that gathers a community and makes them brothers and sister.
Build a movement.
The satisfaction lasts.
The gratification endures.
Haggai, what do you mean about our paneled houses and our gardens?
What are you saying about our luxuries and leisure?
The prophet is pleading and exhorting us to bring our devotion to a higher calling.
Losing oneself in a greater purpose is finding oneself.
Investing time in eternity is multiplying time.
Joining hands with neighbor, friend, and stranger to make a place of meeting is an enduring thrill.
Beyond thrill.
A purposeful life is a real life.
Find it and live it!
