Faces

Tonight I was able to catch up with a friend, as I described how I was waiting for Dad to pursue me and understanding His love for me, my friend had this smirk. Later I discovered my friend is so in love with Dad right now. Honestly, coming from some people I would view this as condescending or judgmental. In this case I saw it as being genuinely glad for me that I was in this process and truly in love with Dad at the same time. I've never been "in love" with a human before, but I have watched many couples in love.

I want to understand this with God- to know what it means to be in love with Him. I see from my friend, and my own life these days that an awareness of God's love can be a result of sharing this with others. What I can sometimes view as a duty really is God's way of reminding me what he thinks, and feels towards me. Tonight, not only was a blessed with this reality but also a picture, in my friends face, of what it is to experience God's love.
