Dizzy

The scriptures repeatedly speak of the sacred romance between God and man. They cry aloud of God's longing to walk among his people. In the law the people were commanded to look strait ahead, not glancing to the right or to the left. To fixate their gaze on the wholeness of God and to pursue Him as a lover pursues his beloved. I have found that this divine fixation is relevant within the bounds of the new covenant. That within our liberty and covering of grace we can so easily become distracted and forget. In my own life I fail to keep my gaze focused. I romance lovers less wild. Their promises wilt into bitterness. Into emptiness. As long as we have breath I believe God still longs to redeem us. I want to experience the depth and wholeness of this redemption. I have tasted and seen that He is good...I want to be consumed in Him as well. Not to the right or to the left...strait ahead...
