“Have I really been looking for the wrong kind of love in the wrong place? Is that even possible?” I asked her.
“Yes. You have failed to understand that there is someone who loves you unconditionally. He loves you just the way you are with all your imperfections. His love is pure and everlasting. That person is God.
So the reason you feel that no one really loves you is because you are looking for love in the wrong place.”
“I don’t believe that God loves me. If he did why are my parents separated? Why don’t I have friends? Why do I always feel lonely? He doesn’t care about me.”
“I don’t have all the answers but I know that God cares a lot about you, you being alive is an indication of that. He loves you. Sometimes you just have to let go of all the pain and frustration you feel and surrender it all to him because he has all the answers.”
“Whatever! I didn’t know you came here to preach to me. If I had known I won’t have given you a listening ear.”
“ I didn’t even plan this. But I realized that you are in need of genuine love so I decided to show you where to get it.
Let’s look at the book of John 3:16. ” For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.”
“I can say that verse in my sleep. It makes no difference to me.”
“If God didn’t love you, why will he send his only son yo die for you? Have you thought if that?
Again we shall look at Isiah 53 :5”. She said while scrolling through the bible app in her phone.
“But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.
Do you really think that he will let Jesus go through all this if he did not care about us?
Stop saying that you are unloved because there is someone who wants to love you, if you are willing to give him a chance. You can’t get this kind of love anywhere else, you will search and get tired of searching. Why not come to him now?”
“Can God forgive the sins of someone like me”. I asked her admist tears……..To be continued.
