Brazil's Ze Roberto: "The Emptiness I Had Was Filled By Jesus"

Christian Today

|PIC1|Brazilian midfielder Ze Roberto has been in great form for Bayern Munich this season, and he’s now looking forward to the World Cup Finals:

I went to the World Cup in 1998, but didn’t have the pleasure of being the champion, and now I have the opportunity to go to the 2006 World Cup here in Germany, and my main goal, my biggest dream is to be the champion.

Ze Roberto has over 70 caps for Brazil, fame and fortune, but he say this is nothing compared with the joy of knowing Jesus Christ.

When you don’t have Jesus in your heart you try to seek out worldly things to fill the emptiness in your heart. This emptiness which I had, I give thanks to God that it has been filled by his son Jesus, and nothing has made me so happy than to live totally differently.
