The Thrill of Romance

February 14th or Valentine’s Day is one of my favorite holidays.

Yesterday I was busy doing Free Reads on Amazon Kindle and failed to post on this blog. Simply Delicious is still available for free as an eBook today and tomorrow.

Anyhow, today a friend posted a quote from a Christian author about prayer on Facebook. He mentioned how difficult situations drive us to press in harder, and it is true.

I would like to add this thought to anyone who takes interest in spiritual things and who would like to know God in a personal way:
Prayer is a language of love and relationship. Some of my first experiences with the Holy Spirit were a thrill – meeting and getting to know Him revolutionized my life and my perspective on Christianity. He is much, much more than what man has presumed to know and practice. 

He ‘romanced’ me, so to speak, made the time I spent seeking and trying to understand Him, exciting to the novice that I was then and still am today.
We should remain child-like and should never ‘arrive’ to the point where we know/have experienced everything. That's stale Christianity, the bread of dead religion.

I love to be with Him, and to experience the supernatural presence of God.
His never ending pursuit of me, and His response to me once I pursued Him, has captivated me. It's the Thrill of Romance!  (Link to Sarah Laughed)

A favorite scripture: “You have captured my heart with one glance from your eyes”, SOS 4:9.
