       That said, again, we love to have good, supporting people in our lives. At the end of the day, though, we don’t ‘have to have’ any of them there in order to feel whole. It’s nice for them to be there when they are there, but our new personhood doesn’t lack if they leave. This may even require giving up jealousy because the sin of jealousy shows us where we are too attached to people. Finally, you have probably guessed it at this point, and that is that we know that “All that matters is God.” Because he is all that truly matters, we are totally complete in him, by him, and for him. In our relationships with him we truly don’t ‘have to have’ anything else. We can survive perfectly fine if God is all that we have. This truth brings tremendous freedom for us. It means in our lives that we are not dependent upon any ‘human’ person for our happiness besides Jesus. Our happiness is found completely and entirely in our relationship with God, in our love for Jesus.
