Maybe you’ve never heard that before. Hopefully this might answer questions that you may have been asking yourself like;
- Why am I never satisfied in my relationships?
- Why do I hang on to relationships even when they’re bad for me?
In the void of a real connection with our creator, we keep going from person to person never satisfying our need for an authentic, wholesome relationship.
Here are a few more questions:
-How do I have a relationship with God?
-Why is there a void between us anyway?
Because the enemy of God “satan”, through deception and manipulation lead humankind into sin.

Is there any?
The Bible tells us that sin leads to death, but we can have eternal life through Jesus Christ.
You see, sin demanded a penalty which was death. Jesus Christ took the penalty of death on the cross! He took all of my sin and all of your sin upon himself, and after he had died, they buried him. Three days later, the power of God, through the Holy Spirit, raised Jesus back to life.

Now Jesus offers us a new life made right with God, giving us the ability to have the original relationship we were intended to have with God.
Peter, one of Jesus’ disciples tells us to repent of your sins, which simply means to turn away from sin and turn to God. In the book of Romans the Bible tells us “If you openly declare that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is by believing in your heart that you are made right with God, and it is by openly declaring your faith that you are saved.”
