Thank You, Jesus.
Thank You for finally making me understand, for finally making me comprehend that all I need is love: my love for You and Your love for me.
Love is everything. Love is what makes everything possible, love is what gives us life, willingness, and joy in being alive. Love is what creates movement, love is what makes our eyes and our souls shine.
Without love, we live withdrawn, still, sad, without strength, apathetic; with love, we live radiant, open, full of life, strength, and energy. Love makes us live full of purpose, desire, and willingness. It is love that nourishes our soul with meaning, purpose, and self-realization; without love, nothing has value, nothing has meaning, nothing has purpose.
Today I understand that the bread I need each day is not the nourishment of the body, but the nourishment of the soul. I need to nourish myself every day with Your love, Jesus. Every day I spend with You makes me happier, more alive, more excited about life.
Your love is everything, because without Your love, I feel empty, I feel insignificant, I feel impoverished in life. My soul longs for Your love, my soul hungers and thirsts for You, and only today do I understand that sadness is the soul’s hunger for Your love.
Only today do I understand that the emptiness of purpose I felt within me throughout my entire life was, in truth, hunger for Your love.
Never again, Lord, will I leave You behind. Never again will I forget You. Never again will I give anything greater priority than You. Because today I understand: I only have life in You.
You are the source of life. Your love conquers death, Your love overflows upon all things and allows everything to exist. Your love, Jesus, is what allows us to have life.
I am grateful to You, Jesus, for finally making me understand what I had been searching for so deeply within myself.
Thank You, Jesus. I will follow You today and eternally. My soul longs only for You.
