Date with Jesus

“A husband can’t woo a wife, who isn’t there.” 
I heard this as I turned my car on this evening; I was leaving a good friends house after a wonderful talk with two of the most amazing women I’ve ever had the honor of calling friends.  It hit me really hard as I drove home.  Now, don’t get me wrong, I’m not married, or in a relationship, so here’s a hint, I’m not talking about an earthly husband.  I know most of us have read the bible and learned how as Christians, the church, we are the bride of Christ. 

Alright, you got that, so if we are the wife and the husband, Jesus, is trying to woo us, are we there?  I know I’m not, at least not like I should be.  The creator of the world wants one on one time with me, how dare I deny Him that, yet daily I do. 
Song of Solomon 2:10
 “My beloved spoke and said to me, “Arise, my darling, my beautiful one, come with me.””
He wants me, daily, to come and rest and be with Him.  I don’t have any fancy hints or ways to make it easier to make time for Him.  All I have is this, an open heart and the desire to let Him speak into my life.  Please dear girls, Let Him woo you.
