The ramblings, murmurrings and thoughts of a 30-something, wife and mostly stay-at-home Mum who hopes.... just maybe...God can use her to bless and encourage others.

ROMANCE.......God's Way
Whether it looks like his vows on your wedding day, an unexpected gift or a call from work to see how you are travelling, we girls love romance.
That feeling of being special to the man in our lives is priceless. And when he takes the time to romance us, the feeling is unbeatable.
Yet anything our boyfriends or husbands might do to 'romance us' pails into insignificance in the light of what we remember later this week.
No night off cooking, red rose or weekend away can compare with the ultimate acts of love God the Father and Son performed for all of humanity 2000 years ago.
They planned a dramatic rescue in order to secure an eternal relationship with the ones they love. They paid the ultimate price - separation from each other. They endured rejection and pain, loneliness and immense grief. They gave and gave, but never demanded anyone receive their precious gift. What vulnerability!
Their Easter sacrifice that secures us real life and real relationship with them is the ultimate gift.
It is a precious thing to be loved with an everlasting love by the One who made us and paid the highest price to prove His love.
No earthly romance can hold a light to that heart and soul winning gesture....and that's worth remembering this weekend.
