Recently, I had a very thought provoking conversation with a coworker. He told me that he believed love is a lie. The sad reality is that, after hearing his story, I can understand his point.
Far too often, children are subjected to situations far out of their control and begin to form this warped view of a love that no one would want a part of. Sadly, the story never ends. Again and again, I have heard and seen this. In fact, I had a point when I doubted that there could ever be such a love that I would want to know.
Fortunately, I met Jesus and my life changed. It didn't change overnight, but it did change. After many years and a dark spell, I really began to experience a life changing, life-saving love. It was this love that taught me to look to God rather than people for the love I needed. Only when this hole inside of me is filled with the love of God can I then really experience a healthy from other people.
I pray that God would show you this love and heal your wounds just as He is healing mine.
