I've wondered up and down this world,
traveling to the north and to the south,
out west and back east again in search of you:
hoping to find true love.
I've tried to capture and subdue that empty feeling I have, because your not in my life, with the earthy concept of love, by tuning into love songs, and gazing at romantic motion pictures, and the dreamy fantasies they portrayed, where the boy meets the girl of his dreams and she has that same dream too, and in the end they fall in love and live happily ever after.
But, it never ends like that for me with what I found so far. Because none of these things compare to you. They can't fill the void of my empty heart, or meet the expectations of love that I have of you; nor even spark the feelings that I have when I think of you.
I've searched for a love like yours over oceans, and traveled through strange lands to find you again. But, all I found was disappointments and users, and those that are seekers of their own gains and not true love.
O that His light would shine on me and guide my path to you, Israel. The place where true love lives and God inhabits'. Only If He would shepherd me to you, then I would find you and I would make my abode with you. I would hold you in my arms with all my strength and never leave you.
In finding you and returning to you, it would be like coming home when you've been gone for a long, long time, or lost at sea to finally drift ashore upon your native land. With you, O Israel, I'm home forevermore; I'm where I belong, where joy, true love, and God dwells for eternity.
Jeremiah 22:10
