How I Realized I Need Jesus

I had tried every thing but the Bible.

Sex, drugs, witchcraft, friends, money, solitude, "love" from people, work, school, business of my own = you know the line - "it all failed my soul"

Still yearning for a purpose, and a reason to exist I expressed this to my mother and sister on 2006 Christmas eve, and my sister says to me "this is exactly how I felt before I found God". That statement bugged me - I said "God"- well that's one I've never tried. And I picked up the Bible and began to read that God is Love and there is not one drop of malice in Him. He loves me above comprehension and wants to take me in and hold me, make my burdens of life lighter - He wants to carry it for me and walk with me every day, every minute and talk to me and love me and just be my best friend. Every piece of loneliness, unloved feeling, confusion, fear of all things fell off me completely since then. So,now, I've never been empty, lonely, and in that desert again no matter what I have, and don't have.
