Living with Restlessness and Unsatisfied Desire
The finite nature of humans leads to a chronic state of restlessness and unsatisfied desire, akin to an unscratchable itch. Whether as followers of Jesus or solely as humans, the challenge lies in navigating this restlessness and unfulfilled longing. This dilemma necessitates taking a stand against desire and finding ways to live with it, a concept explored in various religious and wisdom traditions like Buddhism. Jesus proposed that human desire is infinite because it is meant to be fulfilled by living with God for eternity, suggesting that nothing less will ever provide true satisfaction.
