IAMFORGIVEN

shewasperfect

Everything about you seems unreal as I wonder if this is just a dream?  The sparkle in your eyes when you say hello just melts my heart because I know that look goes deep into my soul and speaks directly to every flutter that awakens the butterflies from within my stomach.  Your smile lights up the room and becomes contagious to all of those around you without even knowing what you do.  Your walk seems to flow with the drum pumping blood through my veins causing my heart to beat.  I have never seen perfection until the day that I met you and saw that my dreams could become a reality.  Was this possible?  Everything that I have ever longed for and was attracted to in a woman seemed to be right in front of my eyes.

I had to say hello.  I had to break down this fear and find a way to approach and make conversation with you. My body couldn’t move, I was frozen and no matter how much I wanted to say something I couldn’t.  NOTHING.  No words would come out of my mouth!

But something broke loose and I had to step up to see if this was love at first sight. I opened my mouth to say hello and in slow motion the sweet sound of your amazing voice just brought goose bumps to my entire body.  A voice that I could wake up to every morning and never get tired of which left me in awe of how beautiful you are!

The conversation arose, and we began to talk, and the more you opened your mouth, the more I just wanted to see your lips move up and down and hear what you had to say.  But the more I listened to the words you had to say the uglier you became.  Your character and who you truly were started to overpower your outward beauty and you were no longer attractive.  That perfection on the outside was nothing more than a beautiful cover up for who you were on the inside.  Your god is yourself, and your beauty is who you worship.  To move forward into something that would never work would be a disaster and without pursuing somebody that loves Jesus as much as myself would only be a recipe for disappointment and loneliness in the long run.

You see, no matter how beautiful you are on the outside it is meaningless because it will eventually pass away.  Your body will get older, you will get more wrinkles, and your youth will no longer exist.  But your character will last forever, as your body will disintegrate and eventually become ugly according to societal standards.  On the other hand, when you have a beautiful character then it will cause your outward beauty to become secondary. Your actions will take over that attraction leaving people in awe of who you are in Christ.

Just remember that through godly character comes spiritual attraction that grows stronger every day.  If your focus is just the outward appearance without godly character, you are just hiding who you truly are, and that will eventually come to the surface for people to know the truth about you.  So focus on what matters and then people will be attracted to you for the right reasons, which will last forever.

God bless you, and I hope you seek after Jesus and watch Him change your life to have the most desirable attraction of all…. the love of God!
