Are You Searching for True Love?
Are you looking for your soulmate—someone to love you and make your life feel complete? It’s natural to believe that everything will fall into place if you just find that one person. But often, the love you’re seeking outside of yourself isn’t what you truly need, especially if you expect it to fill the void in your heart.
You can’t make someone love you the way you want. This kind of conditional love—“If you love me the way I want, then I’ll love you”—often leaves one or both people unhappy. True love doesn’t come from placing your worth or happiness in someone else’s hands.
The Problem with Searching Outside Yourself
Most people look for love externally, hoping someone or something will make them feel loved and whole. But this pursuit often leads to disappointment or even harmful situations. Why? Because many don’t understand what love truly is or where to find it. Instead of searching outside yourself, the answer lies within—and ultimately, with God.
Steps to Fill the Void with True Love
Before you can find your true love or soulmate, there are important steps you need to take. These steps help you cultivate real, lasting love from within:
1. Learn to Love Yourself
Can you truly say you love and accept yourself? Self-love is foundational to experiencing healthy relationships.
2. Understand What Love Truly Is
Love isn’t sex, an emotional high, or fleeting feelings—they come and go. Real love endures.
“Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud.” (1 Corinthians 13:4)
Love is an action, a choice, and a commitment.
3. Know the Source of True Love
God is love. Do you know His love?
“We love because He first loved us.” (1 John 4:19)
Experiencing God’s love fills the void no person can ever satisfy. His love is unconditional, eternal, and perfect.
True Love Starts with God
When you anchor yourself in God’s love and learn to love yourself as He loves you, you’ll no longer seek validation from others to feel whole. This prepares you to experience love in its truest form, whether it’s with a soulmate or through the relationships in your life.
Stop looking outward for what can only be found within. Begin your journey to understanding and experiencing true love today.
Lord, I pray that you will bless us with your true love. I pray that we will wait for the right time and person to love. I pray that we will have the patience and grace we need to love others as ourselves. You created us to love as you love. Fill us up with your Spirit of love. Fill us up with your true love. In Jesus name I pray this. Amen.
