Have you ever had that burning desire of love for someone? When you're not with them do you yearn for them to contact you, for them to love you back? To see them? To hear what they have to say?
Have you ever realized..........that this is how God feels about you?
Really take a moment and think. Most of us have been in love at least once. When you're apart from your lover, or not on good terms, or not speaking.....it can be devastating. All you want is for them to call, take back what they (or you) said, for things to be good.
One thing I've learned from the books "Captivating" and "Wild at Heart" is that we were made in God's image. Yes, everyone has heard that before, but it's more of a personality thing than physical. God put His qualities in each man and woman. Men crave adventure and heroism (what the Bible is crammed with) and women crave relationships-to know that they are wanted.
You can actually find these qualities in both genders, but some are just more prevalent in each.
When you're craving attention and time with the person you love.......realize that that's how God feel about you!! He designed you to be that way!! Only He craves your love and attention so much more than we can imagine. He's so much in love with you.
If you have trouble understanding God's love, look in your own heart. When you desire something so so so badly, stop and realize there's One who desires YOU so much more. When you get to the point of deep desire to just be in the presence of someone you love, remember: God has that same craving feeling, only amplified.
I think sometimes He lets us go through some pain in relationships to try and teach us this. He can teach you so much about love and your own heart. Just open up and listen.
Wow,
