How sad when people choose religion over relationship. Obviously, if people follow a religion, they’re seeking fulfillment; they’re searching for meaning in life. But they won’t find it in a man-made list of foods to eat or words to say or duties to perform. The only filler for that empty part of us is a relationship with God the Father through faith in Jesus the Son. Good works might give us a reason to boast, but they’ll never give us salvation. Faith in Jesus saves.
