Headline: Jesus is getting married!
It is true that the courtship has been bumpy and long. There have been dangers of a broken engagement along the way. But any day now, the wedding will be a reality!
You are invited.
The wedding has been officially announced and the invitations have been sent. Have you responded to your invitation? It is not too late…yet…
Don’t delay.
This will be a marriage that will never drift into the mundane. You will never be bored. You will never be separated by divorce or death.
Take some time to read His Love Letter to you
The Bible — the Word of God was prepared especially for His followers. Get to know the Bridegroom. Start with making a list of His Greatness…His attributes. Note how He relates to His created ones. Pay close attention. Ask Him for understanding. Begin to make a list of what is most meaningful to you as you read. I suggest that you start toward the back of the book…in the New Testament.
Try this for starters:
Make the next four Sundays special. Each Sunday read one of the New Testament Gospels (Matthew, Mark, Luke & John) so you can get to know the Bridegroom. The 4 Gospels. And it’s where you will read of His invitation to you to join Him forever. The more your read, the more you will understand the depth of His love for you!
And begin the journey toward maturity as His someday soon Heavenly Bride. Little by little, growing, maturing, and understanding what it means to be a “follower” devoted to the Bridegroom, Jesus. As He already is devoted to you. He longs to have you say yes! He’s done His part…now it’s your turn to respond.
Parking Spaces
It seems when we begin our walk with God, He seems to even give us every parking space we pray about. And then, one day, we realize we pray for an up front parking space and He says no. All the spaces are full. We have to walk a few blocks. And we are tempted to complain. We ask WHY? And He replies something like: “I love you so much, my love, but you need the exercise!” THAT is TRUE love. Concerned for the other one. And that is the difference between what we want as a baby Christian and what we need as a more mature Christian.
R.S.V.P. But that is only the beginning.
The rest of your life and on into eternity will be spent walking together with Him…side-by-side. Never looking back. There is no one you can trust more than the Heavenly Bridegroom. Jesus, the Christ. The Lord.
Let me know if I can help you toward that journey of becoming all you were created to be. Don’t settle for less than that…
When you are ready…
God bless you bunches!
Thank you for all you do!
Awaiting His shout,
