Take a night to date Jesus. What could be more beautiful? I rarely do. A night for urban girls? Sure. A trip home? Definitely. Dinner with friends? Whenever. Jesus? Maybe next week. how about tonight? How about tonight, I give him my night...always thinking how little time I have for prayer, meditation, writing, pouring over the scripture...always wanting to go far for what is close at hand. Give him a night and see what he does with it. A whole night with the love of our lives. Just might be beyond beautiful.
Seriously, why do I wait for something bad to really be intentional about being in love with him? Why am I so greedy with my time? What sort of relationship do we give this little time to? We know we have to be intentional about getting to know people and spending time with them, but not Him? Not the one who ransomed us from our futile ways, not the star maker, not the one made manifest to be with us?
Tonight is yours Jesus. Court me, love me. Dance me. Take my life. I'm yours.
