the pursuit of you part 6: their eyes were watching God

 

Their eyes were watching God.

A meeting of souls, heaven-appointed,

This was divinely ordained, before the stars were born,

God wrote this song into the heavens.

To be a beacon pointing to the true marriage of Christ and HIS bride. 

This is not pride, but joy; this is not arrogance, but a humble reminder, 

Every good gift comes from above,

Every blessing and grace shown is to point us to the one on the throne. 

In the natural, a man and woman become one,

Freely of their own doing, the maker's handiwork,

They sing up high praises together,

for, in the spirit, their eyes were watching God.

James 1:17 (ESV)
“Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights…”

Ephesians 5:31–32 (KJV)
“For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall be joined unto his wife… This is a great mystery: but I speak concerning Christ and the church.”

*****

may we always keep our eyes on our Maker, and grow in understanding of the great mystery in the age to come.
