A Time to Love

I just had a glorious moment while sitting on our "porch" with a cup of hot coffee spending a little time with God before my feet got too cold. And in those few minutes we had a good heart to heart I'll share with you.

I had the pleasure of attending a wedding last night of two of my friends and it reminded me of the brides perspective on a relationship with God. This morning as I was flipping through my bible I came upon an encouraging word she gave me probably two years ago and a couple things grabbed my heart. She saw a swing set and interpreted it as I am the Lords playmate, she saw angels in a forest watching me because they were intrigued by me, and this one, parts of God are captivated by me.

I forget sometimes about Gods romance. 

It's not a one way street. I have my part in seeking Him out but sometimes I get caught up in 'I'm not doing enough' or that He's loving me in a far off distance only enough to cover my sin not enough to have passion for me. There's a time to be 'grounded' and know your place and there is a time to be wooed by your lover.

Lord, come show us your passion, your passionate love for us!
