Earlier this week, while I was praying, a series of words came out of my mouth that I hadn't really planned:
God, I'm committed to you. God, I'm committed to this relationship.
I know there have been - and will be - ups and downs, but I am committed to walking this journey of life with you.
God, this is a marriage.
All of a sudden, I paused, opening my eyes, to really think about those words. My next set of thoughts were: How had I never thought about my relationship with God like this?
Because that's exactly what we are (or supposed to be) in with God: A marriage.
For the first time in my life, in that moment of solitude and communion, I recognised that my relationship with God was totally a 'for better, for worse' situation. It was an epiphany point.
Billions and billions of us have either said those words or will say those at some point - whether or not we realise the gravity of it at the time - in our lifetime.
And if we can say those words to another human being, how much more God, with whom our relationship is truly eternal?
Have you said your 'I DOs' to God yet?
It might not have been in my own exact words, but have you expressed your dedication and commitment to Him yet?
Yes, God knows exactly what's in your heart; He knows every word you'll ever utter before you even think it. But that doesn't mean He still doesn't want to hear it from you.
Believe it or not, God has feelings too!
Most of us want to feel loved, cherished and know that our Significant Other is committed to us and our relationship - non-excluding God.
He is your Significant Other - and you are His.
So, take out a moment today, walk up to your altar, and marry your God.
Love,
