So as you know, I read Song of Solomon last night. Well, the book just clicked with me today what kind of intimacy that God would like to have with us. Did you know that God is a very passionate God? God does not just love us but He Loves us. Like for real. Read Song of Solomon. As I was reading last night, I almost felt like I was reading a book that I needed to close because of how intimate it was. God does long for us to have that passion and love with someone, but in order to get there, we need to have that passion and love for Him first.
The book that I'm reading "When God Writes Your Love Story" by Eric and Leslie Ludy, talks about the intimate relationship that God wants to have with you but Song of Solomon really drives it home. You wonder where we get our passion and intense feelings for others? Well, let me tell you God has that same passion and intense feelings for me and everyone one of you. God was the creator of our physical passion as well as the emotional and spiritual passion that we need to have with Him. Eric and Leslie go on to say that when God is talking about the relationship between a husband and wife (their physical relationship), it is like them experiencing God's love with them. That is the kind of love that God wants us to desire, is the love that a husband and wife feel when they make love. It may be a crazy thought but I can totally understand that desire that God and His children need to have with each other. I cannot wait to experience that love with my future husband but until then this journey with God will be the most amazing thing I will ever experience.
