Come away with me

"Come Away with Me"

One of the most romantic songs and just phrases ever. In my humble opinion.
Just think about it for a minute.
Who doesn't want to be alone with the person that they love. To go away with them somewhere that there is no distraction or temptation of distraction. For you or the one you love.

Jesus calls to us come away with me. He is jealous for us. He desires to spend time with us. He desires us.

When I listen to that song and think of the jealousy, desire and true I chose you kind of love Jesus has for me. I get dreamy, and I am reminded that I am a woman in love.

I am not trying to be weird here or make anyone uncomfortable I just think that sometimes and I am as guilty of this as anyone we keep Jesus to that coffee date level in our lives. You know the lets get to know you I enjoy my time with you for the hour or so I spend at starbucks but then I go about my life. We think we are doing good and loving him. When in reality we just kind of like him but are unsure if we want to go that next step.

Unsure if we want him to consume our thoughts, if we want to feel as though we are going insane because he consumes our thoughts. Unsure if we want to be in that place where when our sin separates us from even a part of who he is we feel his pain, we feel that separation because we are in love. Unsure if we really want to know every part of him because we don't want him to know every part of us, even though he already does. And yet despite our trepidation in this relationship he continues to choose to love us. He continues to desire us. He continues to say
"Come Away with Me."
