According to Greek mythology, humans were originally created with four arms, four legs and a head with two faces. Fearing their power, Zeus split them into two separate parts, CONDEMNING them to spend their lives in search of their other halves.
I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but there isn't such a thing as a soulmate.
You are your soulmate! God is the only one that can fulfill your soul, he created it for that purpose. Because we were created with a will - (the option to choose) he created a space specifically for him, that would draw us back to him someway, somehow. It's that longing feeling you feel. When you question yourself and ask what makes me happy? Why am I not happy?
Have you spent time seeking people, places and things to find that none of those things made you happy or even made you sadder because what you sought out to have, didn't go as you pictured?! THAT, is the longing feeling I am referring to!
I too have experienced that feeling .. in which it had me disrespecting myself for others. Allowing my body to be used for pleasure but my soul still left empty .. being okay with empty words. BUT GOD.
He came in and showed me true love, showed me he is the only one who has been present in my life since birth. Showed me that I am worth a man who wants commitment and to love me as Christ loved the church.
Proverbs 18:22 Whoso findeth a bwife findeth a good thing, and obtaineth favour of the Lord.
