My friend Melody and I went to a Joyce Meyer conference this past weekend in Cleveland, OH, and Phil Wickham lead the praise and worship. It was so anointed and such a wonderful time. My favorite song of his is “You’re Beautiful”, and as we sang that song, I remembered how I felt the first time I heard it. We also sang this in church yesterday, so that was an extra blessing since this song was already on my mind.
This is a powerful song that describes how beautiful God is. God really spoke to me through this song the first time I heard it. There’s a part of the song that describes how one day we, as Christians who dedicate our lives to Him, will be united with Him.
He is waiting to be united with us!
I don’t know when Jesus is coming back, or when each of us will be united with Him. Jesus longs for that day, though! Is that difficult for you to imagine? He LONGS to be with you. Just like a groom longs to be married to his bride and expectantly waits for her. Jesus longs for you to see Him. He longs to be with you and to spend eternity with Him!
Imagine a wedding getting ready to take place… The groom is expectantly waiting to see his bride. He knows that she will look beautiful. She always looks beautiful to him. As the time gets closer and closer, the music starts. The bride finally walks in, and the groom is overwhelmed with desire and love for her. He is overwhelmed with knowing that she will be his. He has been waiting to spend the rest of his life with her, and he knows the time has finally come.
This is how Jesus feels about you!
He is expectantly waiting for you! He longs to be united with you for eternity. He waits for you as an expectant groom waits for his bride. Jesus loves you.
I pray that God gives you a fresh revelation of His love for you when you listen to this song! He’s longing to be with you. (If you are viewing this through a feed or e-mail, you may need to click here to go directly to my website for the song.)
