What Can Make Us Full?

I've read this story about a preacher who put rocks in a glass container and asked the congregation if it was already full. When the congregation did not answer, he put in some pebbles. Next, he poured in the sand. Finally, he put in water and declared that the container was now really full. He went on to say that if the process was reversed, that is, if th
e water was put in first, then the container would be already right away full.
This story simply tells us that we must not fill up our life with worthless things or the so called "extra baggages" that will never make us full. We can have all the pleasures, power, material things, money, but if we don't have God in our life, we are still incomplete and will never be full.
