The Sweetest
In my lifetime, I tasted a lot of sweets.
They come in different colors and shapes.
Some are chewy, some have bad taste.
My personal favorite is chocolate.
One day, I was playing games,
I tasted this new sweet.
It hyped me up and gave me thrills,
but afterwards, it drained my spirit.
Perplexed, I went on my way,
my mind hooked on that candy all day.
I thought it would make me satisfied,
but it just left me empty and sad.
In my desperation,
Someone gave me attention.
More than a confection,
He lavished on me His affection.
He saw my brokenness,
and loved me at my worst.
His name is Jesus,
and He is the sweetest.
