No matter what the earth provides . . .
there is always something missing deep inside.
Like me, I know you feel that place
that never fills and always aches
Inside it you have put so many things
possessions, people . . . songs to sing.
But instead of feeling warm and complete
there is no peace, no comfort, it just repeats...
There's something more...what can it be?
Where is it? What is it? Is it there for me?
I've stood out there on that shore
looking searching for something more.
Feeling so empty, so incomplete....
listening to my heart repeat....
I know there's something out there to fill this place
its like a satin pillow encased with lace.
It's softer than the wings of doves
and blossoms forth with peace and love.
What is it? Where is it? A promise made...
that waits for me? Oh where has it been laid?

I've stood out there on that very shore
looking, searching for something more.
Then I found the lap of my Savior's love.
Much softer than the wings of doves.
He held me. He told me what I was worth
and my heart stopped searching....
and it gave birth
to the completeness and comfort I'd been searching for
My heart and my soul began to soar.

Oh, Jesus. My Jesus, why did I wait so long?
Searching and looking, but missing your song.
So long I stood on that windy shore
looking and wishing for something more... 
When all the time You were there with me
watching and wishing that I would see...
...that You are the only place I'll find
the comfort and peace that soothes my mind.
It takes me forward toward the love
that's stronger and softer than the wings of a dove.
You complete me. You make me forever know..
that my sins are gone and I'm white as snow.
Your smile ever lifts me
your words give me strength to go on...
For with You walking beside me ...
my victory's won!
"A woman in love with Jesus."

You have a 'lifetime guarantee'.
". . . that He who has begun a good work in you will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ;. . ."
Philippians 1:3-6
"My entire life I have been on a quest. I knew without a doubt that there was something very big and very important missing. I searched it out in my career, my friends, my finances, my possessions.
Nothing filled that place.
Even when given one of the biggest 'breaks' in my writing career...moving to New York and writing for 'Another World'... I knew only temporary happiness and satisfaction.
I thought it was the answer! But it wasn't. I soon became dissatisfied and my quest continued. Everything seemed to leave me so empty.
You've been there, I know you have. Or you are there right now. But I'm telling you, without a doubt, that there is something that will fill your emptiness. A love that is so astounding it will surround you with an everlasting feeling of peace.
You will finally know peace and feel complete.
For this ordinary woman, my quest led directly to the nail scared feet of Jesus!
And the all encompassing Love of an Extraordinary God.
There, brought to my knees...knowing that only here would I find the object of my quest...I turned my life over to Jesus. With all of my imperfections and my sins...He held me. None of this matter to Him for you see . . .
He had totally 'forgiven and forgotten them'.
Do I still have 'bad days'? Certainly, for I'm human.
But I no longer have to stay in that 'dark' place...for I know how to reach for the LIGHT."
