Many have talked to me about our romancing God since I preached on the subject this past week. The principle is that as we are the bride of Christ and he is our bridegroom, he like any groom enjoys romancing his bride. It's the realtiy that God loves us more than just, "he loves everyone", but "he loves me and you individually" and wants to romance each of us in our own special way. It maybe a sunset, a few dollars showing up when we need it most, or some "guys in a little red truck". Those of you who listen online or were present know what I'm talking about.
So the most popular comment I've heard is "I'm looking and I'm still waiting for God to romance me."
Perhaps I made it sound like God always shows his face in massive ways on the days I ask him to. Perhaps I should have also told you about the days and weeks when I saw nothing special, no personal "I love you's", or perhaps I just missed them, but nothing apparent to me either. Well, let me encourage you, He is always present and He always shows Himself in evident ways in His timing, when I need it most. And everytime, it's perfect, it's right on time. He's not late. He's not forgotten about me. His "I love you" can't be missed and is perfect.
So keep looking...He does love you and he'll show you.
