...for a mate, in a mate.
I was talking yesterday to a friend of mine who is debating on going deeper into a relationship with this man she's know for years. She made a statement that stuck with me. She wants to have a man for that is my prayer... more passion.
This morning in church as Pastor was reading the main text scripture for today's teaching, Matt 22:34-40. A thought came to my head. I agree, I desire a man who is passionate for me, about me, one who I can be passionate for and about.
Then I though, Jesus is my Husband now, and He IS passionate about me and for me. Only I don't have quite that level of love for Him. And I want to. I love Him, but am not deeply passionate for Him.
If I can not love God with a deep passion, who will never fail me, how can I love a man, a mate, from God, who is human and can?
I want more love and deep passion for Jesus!
