| 0:00.0 | If I have experienced one thing, regardless of geographical boundary, whatever I had the privilege |
| 0:06.4 | of ministering the world over, I have experienced that same thing that is deep down in many |
| 0:12.6 | people's heart, there is such emptiness, there is such a void, there is such restlessness, |
| 0:19.7 | that in their honest moment they will tell you there's something missing in my life, even though if they don't know what it is. |
| 0:26.4 | That empty feeling, that nothing seemed to be able to feel, they have that sense of restlessness and dissatisfaction. |
| 0:34.8 | Right across economic boundaries, right across racial boundaries, right across geographical |
| 0:41.0 | boundaries. I have experienced and I have seen that happening all across the world. When I talk to |
| 0:47.6 | people whether on airplanes or one-on-one or in functions, and whenever they open up, they can tell me that I feel something is |
| 0:57.0 | missing in my life. I don't know what it is. And by the grace of God and the inside of the Holy Spirit, |

| 1:29.2 | Jesus Christ that feeling will not be cured. If the person is a believer and I have met many of |
| 1:36.3 | those and whenever they confess that there is emptiness in their life, there is that void in their |
| 1:41.8 | life, I invariably found that it is unforgiveness and |
| 1:46.5 | bitterness that they are carrying, whether they know it or not. In fact, that feeling is worse |
| 1:51.8 | in the life of the believer because they ought to know better. And people cope with that emptiness |
| 1:57.6 | and with that restlessness in variety of ways. I have seen it. I have seen |
| 2:03.1 | some who try to cope by burying themselves in their work and their work 24 hours a day. |
| 2:09.0 | There are some who bury themselves in parenting of their children. There are some who |
| 2:14.6 | try to bury themselves and travel from one exotic place to the next. There are some who try to bury themselves and travel from one exotic place to the next. |
