How are you doing with the idea of being complete? Do you struggle with identity and self worth? Do you pop in and out of relationships like going through a revolving door?

God has a better plan for our relationships, but it starts with the most important relationship of your life. You relationship with Jesus. It is Jesus who gives us personal value, meaning and purpose.

From the book:

“What completes us, anyway? Isn’t that why we search for: that perfect one, the knight in shining armor or the princess with sparkling eyes, that one who is the perfect fit, that one and only one who completes us? Maybe it’s the degrees we earn, the money we accumulate, the car we drive, the children we create? Do possessions complete us? Does power complete us? Is it a relationship that completes us, if so, a relationship with whom, another person? How can another imperfect being fill in the deficits within us? If we try to be the deficit filler, how do we maintain our completeness? It can’t happen. The only relationship that completes us to wholeness is our connection to Jesus Christ—Jesus, the only perfect one. He is the one capable of creating wholeness out of brokenness. ‘He has sent me to bind up the wounds of the brokenhearted.’ (Is 61:1 NIV)4 The key to being whole is accepting the love that floods across all the holes within us, filling the gaps.” (Taylor, Joy S., Before You Kiss the Frog…Can We Talk?, Lily of the Valley Publishing Services, 2025, Indiana, pp. 11-12.)
