Seek Him Who Loves You

We always seem to look in all the wrong places for love. Why not seek it from Him who will never let you down?

You shall call on me, and you shall go and pray to me, and I will listen to you. You shall seek me, and find me, when you search for me with all your heart. – Jeremiah 12, WEBBE

Why do we seek the love of someone who can never love us back?
Of someone who can never see us and appreciate us for who we really are?
Are their eyes the only eyes that can see what’s beautiful in us?
Are their hearts the only hearts that can give meaning to our lives?
It is not our fault if someone fails to see what’s good and valuable in us.
It is not our fault if after everything we’ve ever done, and after everything we’ve ever tried, someone fails to receive all the love we have for them inside.
There are other hearts that can return the love we’re truly capable of giving.
And it is not our fault if others fail because their hearts are closed and their eyes are blind.
