Unless God's Love Satisfies You

Do you know that, numerous individuals are in wrong relationships because they want to feel loved? This is an obvious truth in our generation, and every person has been guilty of this.

Young adults all over the world, a huge amount of them, are in a cycle of moving from one romantic relationship to another, the reason being that they hope to feel loved and when they stop to feel loved in a particular relationship, they move to the next.

And unless God's love satisfies you, nothing can. Let me break it down; we are created to be satisfied by God's love and only by His love because the flesh—human body can never be satisfied. Humans naturally have insatiable desires, an 'it's never enough' desire—and that's why, the flesh keeps on wanting and desiring to be loved.

God created us. He planted desires in our hearts quite right. So, it only makes sense that the One who created the desire is the only One able to satisfy it.

When you start to realize the above truth; everything in your life changes. You realize that you don't require people to love you or make you feel loved because you're loved by He who is love.

The pressure and heaviness that comes upon a person when he or she isn't loved the way he desires is taken off from you when you let God love you. You become at ease knowing full well that the Creator of the entire universe is madly in love with you—the gap of wanting to be loved is divinely filled, and your heart is immersed in joy and peace.

This is what matters; that you love the Lord your God with all your heart—embrace His love for you and all emptiness is terminated in your life. You're able to be in the right relationships God has predestined for you to be in—become satisfied with your partner/ friend or spouse and love others wholeheartedly.

You'll be blessing someone today by sharing this piece with them. Likewise, you can do this by copying the link above and sharing it with whomever:)

Remember this:

“God is madly in love with you —and that's all that matters.”

the pain and joy of being a woman.

“Ada, hurry and fetch water. Clean the house. Wash the toilet. Do the dishes. And make sure you always wear a smile. Never be ungrateful. Be humble. Ada, always respect your elders. Obey your parents.” Ada do this. Ada do that. Until one day, Ada faints from burnout.  Until she grows weary of labor that is never appreciated. Until pain becomes familiar. Until she becomes numb, selfish, and nonchalant. But who will care?  The blame will still rest on Ada. “Ada must always do everything she is instructed to do. She must never complain. She must never let a tear fall.” Omo, Ada is tired. Ada needs love that isn’t a paycheck for the work she completes. Ada needs encouragement for trying, not just correction for failing. So that Ada does not grow weary and lean. Dear girl child, you are a superhero. I know that sometimes society sees you as a powerhouse—one that should never run low—but you are human. The responsibilities tied to being a woman—from household chores to c...

oh, to be the last child.

Image
In a society that shines so much light on the struggles of the first child, yet barely acknowledges those of the last. I’m going to talk about it. To be the last child is no small thing. You grow up learning to seek permission before doing almost anything. You live with the fear of being criticized by everyone because you were surrounded by people older than you—people whose voices always seemed to matter more. It becomes hard to express your opinions without the fear of being reprimanded or silenced. So you over-explain. Again and again. Just to prove your point. Just to be heard. Because being the youngest has taught you that the advice of the oldest always deserves a seat at the table… while yours struggles for even half a listening ear. You grow up afraid of getting things wrong. Because to you, failure doesn’t just feel like a mistake—it feels like an invitation for criticism. And even when you step into the real world, even as an adult, that fear lingers. “...

choose yourself too.

Image
I know how it feels to care too much. I live it every day. I try to become this unrealistic, flawless version of myself for people. I overwork myself, carrying every burden thrown my way—like lifting 100 pounds of dumbbells with one finger. I worry about being successful in everything: life, academics, even relationships. But I’m gradually realizing that I need to choose myself too. I need to make time for myself. And it’s not selfishness—it’s wisdom. Because imagine spending 24 hours every single day doing and being what everyone wants you to be. I say this to myself more often than is healthy: “I’m supposed to get it right. I’m not supposed to fail.” I keep trying to be what I think I’m supposed to be, but life is far bigger than that. What will I say to God when I get to Heaven? “I did everything people said I was supposed to do?” And He responds, “That’s not what I asked you to do.” Then what becomes of all those years spent trying to be everything for everyone? Let ...
