Drawn in....

So finally, i'm able to be at home for the first time in way too long. It's a very peaceful, overcast Saturday morning and I'm enjoying a little time in the word at one of my favorite coffee shops. It could simply be the fact that Valentine's Day was during this past week, but regardless, I've been so reminded of the Lord's love for us, for me. I found this verse in Jeremiah ch. 31:3 which says, "The Lord appeared to us in the past, saying:
'I have loved you with an everlasting love, I have a drawn
you in with loving-kindness."
Yeah..it's short, but to hear the Lord himself say that He has loved me, not with just temporal love, but with eternal, everlasting love...how beautiful that is to me. Not only that, but He has and is drawing me (to Him) with loving-kindness.
My Prayer for this weekend is that I would allow the Lord to Romance me, to find that Christ can satisfy the inner desires of the heart with His infinite love...and that He would exemplify that love in and through me for the blessing of others.
