Advent 2015 Journal: Day Two

Advent: Day two

"O come, O come, Emmanuel, and ransom captive Israel"

Nothing we achieve, nothing we do or how much we know, seems to bring us lasting satisfaction.
 I seem to want to know more and more. Why?

I long for God that much?

I have always wondered why God favors mankind?
Why us?
We are wretched, sinful, destroyers of most that is good.
Why does God have so much love for us?
Why does he bother with humanity?
Is humankind worth that much?

 Redeem me, O Lord! I can't do anything right!
