Whole

(I never finished that 30 day writing challenge WHOOPS.)
(Anyway, here's a thing.)

Please stop saying you’re looking for your other half.

You are not a half. You are a whole.

You are not half a person. You are not half a heart, half a soul, or half a mind.

Listen to your heartbeat. It’s the sound of that heart, your heart, pumping blood through your veins, to your feet and legs and fingertips. It’s the sound of a heart that can feel sadness, happiness, loneliness, satisfaction—it’s the sound of a heart that can be reckless, impulsive, or wise. You feel all those things—yes, you. You don’t need another person to feel the wide range of emotion that your heart is capable of feeling.

If you’ve asked Jesus into your heart, it’s already more than full. It’s overflowing with love: the love of the One who died to save you from death. That love is all your heart will ever truly need.
