More. We want more money, more time, more friends, Why is it that we never feel satisfied with what we have? or a more expensive house. But even if we get these things, we still feel like we need more of something: we are never fulfilled. There is still a basic emptiness that exists in us. Why is it that we never feel satisfied with what we have? The answer lies in our very nature: human beings have an infinite capacity for happiness; thus they cannot be fulfilled by the finite things of this world. We were made to live in the infinite, divine life of God. As St. Augustine said of God, "You have made us for yourself, and our hearts are restless until they find their rest in Thee." Next: IN THE BEGINNING...	About Me Later this year Our Sunday Visitor will be publishing my book Who Is Jesus Christ? Unlocking the Mystery in the Gospel of Matthew, a series of reflections on the titles given to Jesus in the Gospel of Matthew. I began my study of the Catholic faith in 1991 as an Evangelical Protestant, converting to the Catholic Church in 1993. I serve as head of evangelization at St. John Neumann parish in Gaithersburg, MD, and am cofounder of Little Flowers Foundation, a non-profit whose mission is to assist Catholic families seeking to adopt children with special-needs.
