The Perfect One For Me


The past few years, I've spent my life just wandering, trying to find that perfect one for me to fill my empty void, only to be turned down soon after. Over and over again, I kept on filling that void, only wanting to be accepted by others, but then I died of their rejection. I tried to find more choices, but soon ran out of options for myself. I felt as though life was meaningless and there was no point to keep going. Trying to keep that void filled, I soon forgot who I truly was. I needed someone who could fill that void completely; someone who would satisfy me and someone who would never leave. I needed that perfect someone for me. I met that perfect someone in 2016 after the death of my grandma from lung cancer. That perfect one for me......His name is Jesus Christ. He is the one who filled my void, the one who satisfies me, and did more than just that - He died for me and rose again 3 days later in accordance with the scriptures and took away all my sins. I no longer need to fill that void because I have Jesus. To God be all the glory and honor forever!! Amen!!

Just tryna' write poetry that always glorifies God and who He is, what he has done for me, and what He can and will do for you! If God can transform my life, I know without a doubt he can transform yours too! You are NEVER too far gone, or broken for God! Come to Jesus just as you are and give your life to him and watch the change happen when you turn to Jesus and live for Him!! Being a Christian is never easy, just as life isn't easy, but our only hope is in Jesus Christ the one and only!!
