“I can buy my own flowers and dance with myself. I can hold my own hand and love myself better than you ever loved me…” That’s roughly the summary of a song in which a well-known singer comes to terms with her separation from her ex-husband.

The song is making waves, is being heard worldwide, and is breaking many records. Obviously, the singer is not the only one who is disappointed in love.

Don’t we all carry within us a deep desire for connection and a longing for faithful love? Nevertheless, broken relationships and divided families are omnipresent in our society.

In the Bible, we read about Jesus, who died for us out of love. He took on hatred, mockery, and ultimately death to reconcile us with God. God is faithful even when we are unfaithful. His love will never disappoint us. In him, our longing for faithful love is satisfied.

Do you want to let God love you?
