I think that sometimes the sins we love are the very ones which keep us from getting what our hearts really desire. Check it out in your own life. What is a sin that you know you should stop but you love? You cling to it. You crave it. You're lost in it. Does it have something to do with what your heart desires most? Mine does. I have used that sin to fill the longing. I have pushed God's timing out of my life and I have filled it with what I want, when I want it and how I want it. It is so sick and twisted if you really think about it. There is therapy for this kind of thing!!
Perhaps the longing in our hearts that we fill with sin could be filled with real peace if we sought after God as we ought. I know the longings in my heart would be true and correct if I pursued my God as I ought.
The pursuit of God is what the human heart was created for. Let me not add my own petty substitutes instead of seeking after the creator and lover of my soul!
