The denial of real experience with Christ is what baffles me. What I have learned in my life is that no one will love me, no one will be absolutely truthful with me, no one will steadfastly walk with me, no one can truly know me, no one but Jesus, only He can meet these deepest soul needs. And He does.

And, rest knowing that he/she will love you unconditionally for your entire life. You would only blossom and grow in such fertile soil of unconditional love. That's what Jesus offers us. And, so it's a matter following Him each day, and with each decision, even if sometimes it seems all you can do is put one foot in front the other, giving it all to Him, and depending only on Him. Jesus loves us unconditionally and because of that we can grow in Him. We can never love Him as much as He does us. But, making a daily commitment to Him is what we are called to do. Sometimes that means struggling to barely put one foot in front the other, and sometimes it means soaring as freely and fast as the wind can carry. Don't give up on God. Hope is what we have in Him.
