Romance by My King.....

Why did God curse Eve with lonliness and heartache- with an emptiness that nothing can fill? He did it so that he could save her. God has to thwart her. In love, he has to block her attempts until, wonded and aching, she turns to Him and Him along for her rescue. ***"Therefore, I will bock her path with thornbushes; I will call her in so she cannot find her way. She wil chase after her lovers but not catch them. She will look for them but not find them..." Hosea 2:6-7*** Jesus has to thwart me too- thwart my self redemptive plans, my controlling and my hiding, thwart the ways that i am seeking to fill the ache within me. Other wise, I will never fully turn to Him for my resuce. He will romance me- like never before, he will hold my heart in his hands and romance it and draw me back to him. ***"Therefore, i am now going to allure her; I will lead her into the deert and speak tenderely to her." Hosea 2:14***

He will allure her
He will pursue her
and call her out
to wilderness with flowers
in His hand
she is respinding
beat up and hurting
deserving death
but offereings of life
are found instead
She will sing
She will sing
Oh, to You
She will sing as in
the days of her youth
as You lead her away
to valleys low,
to Acres of Hope...
