Divine Heartbreak

If only I could put into words the love God has for you. The love that I don’t and never will fully understand. You would WANT to serve him. Reading your Bible would be a joy. Chapel would always have something for you. The way we view God is skewed. He is so wonderful, so beautiful. Beyond anything in our earthly lives. And for Him to love me? meeee? I never deserved such love. The way Rob Bell describes it in Sex God is that when we love someone we are putting ourselves out there for them to either accept or reject our love. Bell gives us a nice flashback to what it was like in middle school to ask your crush to dance or sending them that circle “yes” or “no” note in class. And it doesn’t end in middle school. Through our relationships before marriage and into them. Not only with a spouse but with friends, family, and co-workers. We hand over our hearts to be accepted or denied. Will we be accepted? Will they be willing to love us back? When you put it like that it’s not wonder it hurts so much when we’re denied. But that’s what God has done. Creates us, loves all with undying love, and with that true love comes our decision to either accept or deny it. It wouldn’t be love it was any other way. And if we deny… He comes again! And AGAIN! It’s the divine heartbreak. So why don’t we say yes?!?! Say yes to the ultimate lover of your soul.
