Nothingness

So, if everything we know is made of nothingness and could blink out of existence forever in an instant if God willed it, why do we cling to things?

Think how ridiculous we look getting so attached to all of our stuff.

God is constantly trying to offer us himself, a relationship with our creator, really the only entity to have substance in and of Himself, the only Something in a world made out of nothing.

And we'd rather have nothing. We want our nice clothes and our fancy cars and our pets and our houses.

And God must be looking at us with pity, because we are so foolish. He is offering us Him, and we are steadfastly clinging to nothingness and proclaiming it to be something.

"But that's literally nothing, my child. I just made that up. It will vanish back into pure nothingness."

I'm praying for you!
