You Were Made for Me

Contentment eludes me; satisfaction never comes.
What’s wrong with me? I cry. Why can’t I be happy with what I have?

His voice rings true and strong:
What you want will never satisfy.
And there’s nothing wrong with you.
You were made for another world.
You were made to long for something else,
something more than this.
The things you long for here are just shadows
Of what you were made for.


Love deserts me. Emptiness always comes.
What’s wrong with me? I cry. Why can’t I be full with what I have?

His voice croons soft and low:
Earth’s love will never satisfy.
And there’s nothing wrong with you.
You’re a vessel for My love only.
You were made to be full of Me
And after you’re full, to pour yourself out.
The love you long for is just a shadow
Of the love I have for you.

Come with Me into the quiet places, beside the still waters.
Come restore your soul.
Come let Me love you – hear My heart.
Come let Me fill you – rest in Me.
