Pursued by Grace: History as a love story

 

 

God has many names for us. Beautiful names. Words like “body”, “temple”, “flock”, “workmanship”. He compares His people to different parts of the physical world so that we can understand in part who we are. But there is no image He uses as often as that of a woman, a wife or a bride. Throughout the Old Testament and the New, He uses language to paint this picture again and again. He is a Lover, we are His beloved. He is a Husband, we are His bride.

One more little space in a remote corner of the cyber world, set aside as a sanctuary for quiet thoughts, whispers of dreams, words of hope. You might wonder as you open this page for the first time, “Why another blog?” I’ve certainly wondered that. There are plenty of spaces like this online – hundreds of millions, they tell me. Then why would I take the time to craft another one? Why would I add my voice to the clamor? I’m not a better Christian or a brilliant writer. I certainly don’t have it all together. What right have I, I ask myself, to make yet another blog and to publish words that are finite and flawed?
