it's a great romance.

I woke up feeling happy today
I think it was because of something I thought:
“It makes you happy when you know someone loves you”
And that person was God.
I’ve been reading this book, and it was talking about how God wants us.
Like, he actually desires us, YEARNS for us and chases after us.
He is a jealous God after all.
But it’s not the type of jealous we think of. It’s different.

He wants us to want him.
Because he wants us.

Christianity changes dramatically when we discover that it too,
apart from life itself, is a GREAT ROMANCE.
What a thought to ponder:
God yearns to share a life of beauty, intimacy and adventure with us.
Ever thought those kinds of words were related to God?
Maybe you’ve been looking at it differently.
That’s how I see it.
Relationship.
That’s what he wants, and that’s what we want.

This is why we’re alive.
