GOD SHAPED HOLE

(Listen to the song; #3 on CHRISTIAN FOLKS)
Ever felt like there was something missing inside you? Ever thought that next relationship would make you whole only to be let down once again? I've got good news for you if you have... that emptiness inside has a specific shape and size that can only be filled by what was intended to fill it. You might say it is a God Shaped Hole! That's right, and He is a perfect fit to make every person a completed work of art. Our creator has designed us to be His companions, awesome creations where His Spirit can reside and have direct fellowship with Him!!! How awesome is that?

I was about twenty four when I wrote GOD SHAPED HOLE, and that was exactly how I felt. My life lacked direction and purpose, and trying to find that in a potential mate was the classic young man's mistake; it was my mistake.  When I finally surrendered my life to God and allowed Him to fill my emptiness, everything changed. I went from trying desperately to find the right ONE to earnestly working towards becoming the right ONE.

That was almost thirty years ago! And in that time God has never let me down! He has never abandoned me. I have had some incredibly difficult trials that's for sure, but He sees me through it every time. And every time I go through one of life's great valleys I emerge stronger and closer to my God! I hope and pray that every person discovers the God Shaped Hole in their own lives. It will make an eternity of difference in their lives!

Please give the song GOD SHAPED HOLE a listen and I hope it will inspire you. God Bless and fill you!

GOD SHAPED HOLE
Words & music by Reggie Michaud © 1984

Mid way into the morning, I’m sitting alone watching clouds go by
Left work, couldn’t continue; the things that she said were making me cry
Let down great expectations, I’m wondering why nothing’s permanent
Somehow I see through the teardrops, the things I’ve been leaning on leave me dry


There’s something about this emotional morning
There’s something inside me that’s out of place
I feel like a frame without a picture
An empty glove or a clock hung upon the wall without a face

Cuz there’s a God-shaped hole in my heart and it’s waiting to be filled once again
I’m beginning to understand…
There’s a God-shaped hole in my heart and it’s got me on my knees praying; “Lord
Will you teach me who I am!”

Halfway into the evening I’m sitting alone reading Genesis

Stayed home to meet my creator and learn of the things so dear to His heart
Let down with His creation, the Lord sent His Son to teach another way 
Now I can see through His wisdom there’s one way to live long after you die


There’s something about this powerful evening

There’s something inside me that’s finally in place

The searching is over; I’ll never be lonely
I’m off and I’m running along on the narrow road to win the race

Cuz there’s a God-shaped hole in my heart and it’s waiting to be filled once again
I’m beginning to understand…
There’s a God-shaped hole in my heart and it’s got me on my knees praying; “Lord
You’re the only one who can!”
There’s a God-shaped hole in my heart and it’s longing to be filled by the Holy Spirit

You fill me over and over again…

There’s a God-shaped hole in my heart and I’m falling on my knees crying; “Lord
You’re the only one who can!”

Babe I know exactly what you are speaking of. I lived with that hole for many years and thru many trials I too came out on the other side such a better person. When I surrendered and let God fill that hole that only he could fill I felt complete and ready to become the right one. I too was looking for the right one and when I became the right one he presented me with you. I love you more everyday and look forward to what he has in the next few years for us. Thank you for sharing your soul in your blogs.
