The Love I Was Always Looking For
I’ve spent a lot of my life searching for love.
Looking for it in people.
In approval.
In being chosen.
In being enough for someone to stay.
I thought love would finally quiet the ache if I found it in the right place, the right person, the right season.
But the truth is…
the deepest love I’ve ever needed was never missing.
While I was searching, He was waiting.
Waiting while I chased what couldn’t hold me.
Waiting while I tried to prove my worth.
Waiting while I learned the hard way that human love—no matter how sincere—can still fall short.
He never competed for my attention.
Never forced Himself into my life.
Never left when I wandered.
Just stayed.
Loving me in ways I didn’t yet understand.
Choosing me when I didn’t choose Him back.
Paying a price I didn’t realize I needed paid.
On days I felt overlooked.
On days I felt unlovable.
On days I was tired of hoping—
He was still there.
On Valentine’s Day, I was reminded that the love I was searching for in the world
has always been found at the feet of Jesus.
The original love.
The faithful love.
The love that didn’t just say “I love you”—
but proved it.
And He’s still waiting.
