I had a moment tonight to talk with Hudson (he's 14). He wanted to tell me about a word he had come across that started with "N". He explained if I did a search on Google for "emptiness, Wikipedia" that was where he found the word that started with "N". I asked "you did a search for "emptiness"? He said, "I think that is why I'm lazy, I just think what's the point"?
The word he found was "Nihilism" which means life is without objective meaning.
Hudson's favorite book of the Bible is Ecclesiastes because it expresses so much of how he feels.
I tried to remind him that the questions he is asking are important and that God is giving him the answer. Life is pointless without God. With God, what's the point? Then Harrison came in and wanted his DS connected to the wi-fi.
After I tucked Hudson in for the night, I asked God to help me understand what Hudson was struggling with. I googled "emptiness" and began to click on search results. I came across this. A video that answers the question...
WITH GOD, WHAT IS THE POINT?
