26 Then they sailed to the country of the Gerasenes, which is opposite Galilee. 27 When Jesus had stepped out on land, there met Him a man from the city who had demons. For a long time he had worn no clothes, and he had not lived in a house but among the tombs. 28 When he saw Jesus, he cried out and fell down before Him and said with a loud voice, “What have you to do with me, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? I beg you, do not torment me.” ~ Luke 8:26-28
When wolves are separated from their pack, they howl out in pain. They howl because they’re separated from their family and loved ones. This is like us.
Our soul howls for God when we’re away from Him. We’re depressed, angry, broken, diseased, and in pain. Our soul is howling out in pain because it’s separated from God, just like that wolf.
The man with Legion was fully demonized and couldn’t even speak, but yet when he saw Jesus, He ran to Him and fell at His feet. His soul was howling for freedom.
Our soul cries out for God and gives us each day as a new opportunity to run to Him and throw ourselves down at His feet as the man with Legion did. And as our soul cries out, God calls back to our soul. He knocks on the door of our heart day and night.
Peace. Love. Go Forth and Answer His Call.
