We all have different seasons in our lives. This season of my life seems to be centering around Love. Let me clarify before everyone get’s curious and starts putting words in my mouth that aren’t there. No… I’m not “in love”. God has been revealing to me how vast and complex His love is for each of us. And also different facets of love [if you're drawing a blank... you could break it down as romantic love, relational love and unconditional love]. The past few days He’s been blowing my mind with how He intentionally seeks us out and pursues us with an unmatchable love.

Being a female, I’m going to relate this more to the females. No offense to the men… I truly value your input in this!! As a female, we long to be loved with unwavering devotion. Let’s face it ladies and just admit it. We want to know that “our man” has eyes for us only, and is not off and pursuing the next-best-thing. I’ve been in that situation previously, and I can tell you that it stinks. We crave love. In fact, if we get downright honest there are probably times we’re addicted to love or the thought of it.

God loves us so deeply that He gave His perfect Son, who made His name known each moment,  as our sacrifice for sin. He loves us like His perfect Son, Jesus Christ. You and I are loved that deeply. Can you just stop for a minute and let that reality sink in? He loves you like His Son! He doesn’t force His love on us, rather He pursues us with unwavering devotion. He romances us and knows just what makes our heart skip a beat. He longs for us, and desires our love and affection in return. His love will not fade over time. What an incredible picture of love!

We [ladies] love a good hero, and frankly its highly attractive… knowing we are protected, cared for and romanced. Why? Only the Lord knows why He made us that way :) I’m so grateful that despite terrible examples of relationships all around us, God role-models exactly what love is supposed to look like. Absolutely incredible.  Not sure why this season is centering on love… but He is showing me so much. Perhaps I’ll share at some point :)

Learning to love,
Z
