Oh what a lovely thing it is to be wooed! To be wooed is to be taken on a journey with every little surprise thought out just for you. Every detail has been set in place with your likes and passions in mind. He sets the table a special way. He looks nice. He arranges the whole day around you. There is nothing quite like it. What is even more incredible is that the human version of romance is merely a dim reflection of the wooing of our Savior. I look out my window upon the early morning and hear families of birds singing to the sun. That was my Savior romancing me. I hear the trickling of a stream in a cool grove of trees. That was my Savior seducing me. I look to the diamond stars in the sky. Each one of those is a kiss from him. When I realize this the world becomes an intimate and romantic love letter from its very Creator. We are so blessed to have such a romantic and thoughtful lover in Jesus. After all, he IS love. He created love. While earthly love is one of the most beautiful and satisfying things we can experience, it is only so satisfying because it is a picture of the relationship the Lord wants to have with us. Notice his love letters. Let yourself be swoon in his presence. Let yourself be wooed.
