1. Where would we be without holes? Holes are almost an endless subject because there are so many of them! It seems like EVERYTHING is composed of holes.
2. So don't feel too bad if YOU feel like nothing, 'cause nothing is almost everything, & there wouldn't be anything without nothing. God says He even HUNG the World on nothing! In fact, He says He MADE it out of nothing & He calls things that are NOT as though they WERE!--"ARE NOT" means NOTHING. So GOD makes the NOTHINGS SOMETHINGS out of NOTHING so they can be ANYTHING if they just have GOD to make them SOMETHING!
3. In fact, with God nothing is impossible! If you can believe in GOD, EVERYTHING is possible, because He makes EVERYTHING out of NOTHING--even YOU & ME! WE'RE nothing & WE'RE IMPOSSIBLE except for GOD & He takes our nothing & makes it SOMETHING so it can be ANYTHING with GOD! Because NOTHINGS aren't ANYTHING without GOD, 'cause HE'S like the CIRCLE around the NOTHING that makes it SOMETHING.--With GOD all around YOU, even your NOTHING can be SOMETHING.--In fact, you can be almost ANYTHING, 'cause GOD makes EVERYTHING out of NOTHING--NOTHING surrounded by HIM!
4. So the next time you see a hole, remember it wouldn't even be a hole if there wasn't something around it.--It would just be NOTHING. And remember that YOU are just like that hole! If you don't have GOD around you, you're not going to be ANYTHING!--You're just going to be absolutely NOTHING--not even a HOLE!--'Cause even a HOLE can't be anything at ALL--it can't even be a HOLE without something AROUND it that MAKES it a hole. But if NOTHING has something AROUND it, it can at least be a HOLE! And as you can see, holes are very IMPORTANT & USEFUL.
5. So if you're nothing, just surround yourself with God's something & you can become a VERY useful & important little HOLE--NOTHING surrounded by GOD, out of which He made EVERYTHING. So you could even be ANYTHING if you're a GOOD HOLE--a nothing that's got GOD around it! 'Cause God makes SOMETHING out of NOTHING so it can be ANYTHING. 'Cause He made EVERYTHING out of NOTHING, just like YOU & ME!
6. There's no end to nothing! There's ALWAYS an end to SOMETHING, but there's NEVER an end to NOTHING! So if you'll just be NOTHING, you can even be BIGGER than SOMETHING! And the more NOTHING something is--the more full of HOLES it is--so the more HOLY it is!
7. All the big somebodies wouldn't be anybody if it weren't for us nobodies!--All the people that think they're SOMETHING wouldn't be ANYTHING if it weren't for us NOTHINGS!
8. And you know what love is?--It's a HOLE that needs to be FILLED!--PLUS something to fill it WITH!--Like YOU & ME & JESUS! There are SQUARE holes & ROUND holes & ALL KINDS of holes & it takes all kinds of PEGS to fill'm! So whatever kind of peg YOU are, there's a hole SOMEWHERE where you'll FIT.--And no matter what KIND of HOLE you are, God's got you PEGGED! All holes are NOTHING made for SOMETHING. So if you're a hole & you feel like nothing, there's something for you somewhere.
9. Are you a hole?--Then God's got something for YOU! Folks that aren't holes can't have ANYTHING, 'cause they already think they're SOMETHING when they are really NOTHING! It says: "He has satisfied the HUNGRY heart, but the RICH He has sent EMPTY away!" So be glad you can have God's SOMETHING! It's TRUE!--And you can be ANYTHING if you're a HOLE! But if you think you're SOMETHING, you can't be NOTHING, 'cause God can't give you ANYTHING. So thank God you're a HOLE 'cause God can MAKE SOMETHING out of NOTHING so it can be ANYTHING!--But He can't make NOTHING out of SOMETHING, 'cause He likes to make SOMETHING out of NOTHING! Because if SOMETHING is ANYTHING, it can't be NOTHING & He can't fill it with EVERYTHING 'cause it thinks it's already SOMETHING! So be glad you're a HOLE, so God can make SOMETHING out of NO THING & FILL you up & make you ANYTHING! God can fill your NOTHING with SOMETHING so you can do ANYTHING, 'cause you're a HOLE! GOD must LIKE holes, He made so many of them!--And He likes to FILL them ALL!
10. God LOVES holes & He made LOTS of holes so He could FILL'm up! So if you're a hole, God can fill you up! 'Cause if you're NOTHING, you can be full of SOMETHING. 'Cause if you were SOMETHING you couldn't be full of NOTHING. So be GLAD you're a hole! You see, if a hole is so FULL ALREADY, God can't shove anything INTO it 'cause it's ALREADY so FULL of something that it can't HOLD anything any more! 'Cause you gotta be a HOLE to HOLD something, 'cause only HOLES can HOLD. If you're NOT a hole, you can't HOLD or BEHOLD or have the HOLY Spirit & you missed the WHOLE thing! 'Cause you gotta be a HOLE to be ANYTHING, 'cause you can't be SOMETHING without NOTHING. 'Cause you gotta be a HOLE to be FILLED, 'cause who ever heard of trying to fill anything up but a HOLE? 'Cause you can't fill a thing that's already FULL of SOMETHING, 'cause you gotta be full of NOTHING in order to be filled with ANYTHING.--Ain't that SOMETHING!
11. 'Cause first you gotta make a hole before you can fill it up--just like God!--He's gotta make you a HOLE before He can FILL you up! He's gotta make you a NOTHING so He can fill you up with SOMETHING. So if you try your best to be NOTHING you're bound to be filled with SOMETHING & GOD can FILL you with ANYTHING if you're a HOLE!
12. But if you're a HOLE, at least you're SOMETHING that can be full of ANYTHING, 'cause you're NOTHING but a HOLE! And God wants to fill you up with SOMETHING or else you won't be ANYTHING & you won't be NOTHING if you think you're SOMETHING, 'cause you can't be a HOLE if you're ANYTHING, 'cause you gotta be NOTHIN' to be a HOLE. But if you're a HOLE, you can be the "HOLE" thing--GOD'S thing! Are YOU a good hole full of NOTHING?--Then God can FILL you with SOMETHING & make you a VERY HAPPY HOLE full of ANYTHING God wants to fill you with! OK?
13. You gotta be NOTHING to be SOMETHING! So please be one of God's little holes, will you, so He can fill you with something. OK? So let's be holy TOO, OK?--If you're UNHOLY, it's 'cause you're not HOLEY enough! Are you a HOLE?--OK, then you're HOLY! So let's all be HOLES & HOLY & then we'll all be HOLY HOLES! I'm a WHOLE HOLY HOLE for His HOLINESS, JESUS!--What are YOU?--Are YOU one of God's holes full of NOTHING so He can FILL you with SOMETHING? Let's ALL be HOLY HOLES for His HOLINESS--JESUS!--Amen?
