The Romance

Yes, the romance. I'm not just talking about earthly romance, such as between a husband and a wife. Which I hope that any married people reading this still have romance in your marriage! I'm mostly talking about romance with God! I believe that our earthly romances should reflect our romance with God. And a romance it is!

God not only loves us, but he cherishes us, treasures us, and we should cherish and treasure Him as well. Captivating means to hold the attention of, with an irresistible appeal. Romantically, captivating would be that attraction that almost makes you explode! I find God captivating and apparently He finds me captivating as well. How do I know that He finds me captivating? Well, for starters, if He didn't find us, his children, captivating then wouldn't He have left us years and years ago. If something doesn't capture your attention like a book, then don't you put it down and search for something better? I do. God is still active in our lives, we haven't bored Him yet! He finds us captivating! And I think that if we look around at nature and dwell on God's character for even one minute we will find Him utterly captivating as well.

God seriously loves us! I think that He watches our every move. He is a very attentive God. I wouldn't give up my relationship with him for anything. And He has done things for me that I can't even describe without being overwhelmed with emotion. So I guess basically I'm saying that it is good for us to remember how much God loves us and how much He is interested in our lives. And then we need to love Him and be interested in Him as well!

It's a romance. (For Kristen...God dates are good!)
