“It is Jesus that you seek when you dream of happiness; He is waiting for you when nothing else you find satisfies you; He is the beauty to which you are so attracted; it is He who provoked you with that thirst for fullness that will not let you settle for compromise; it is He who urges you to shed the masks of a false life; it is He who reads in your heart your most genuine choices, the choices that others try to stifle.”― Blessed Pope John Paul II
I was a Sophomore at Michigan State. I just received a letter from the Mechanical Engineering School congratulating me for my acceptance into the school after 2 hard years of “pre-engineering”, shortly afterwards another letter came in from General Motors offering me a job as an intern at their headquarters for the summer. I had a very special girlfriend, I was enjoying golf and plenty of basketball with my buddies in the beautiful Spring weather…and it seemed that everything was perfect. But I was not satisfied. Only Christ could fill my heart and the world with all of its promises could not come close. I found Christ then and there is no looking back!!
