He has experienced what you have experienced; He alone knows your grief and suffering. "In all their affliction He was afflicted, and the angel of His presence saved them; in His love and in His mercy He redeemed them; and He lifted them and carried them all the days of old" (Isaiah 63:9 NASB). Don't search for someone or something to fill the holes in your life. Let Jesus fill you. He is right there waiting for you with outstretched arms. "After a certain period of time, I did want another person to fill the hole," says Melissa, whose husband died, "but as I grew in the Lord, I knew that it wasn't possible." Lord, true healing is found in a relationship with You. May I fall into Your embrace today. Amen.
