SOAP September 17, 2014

Scripture: So Jacob served seven years for Rachel, and they seemed to him but a few days because of the love he had for her. (Genesis 29:20 ESV)

Observation: When we truly love someone, time seems to go by almost as if it doesn't exist.  Just being near them calms us, stills us, brings us joy and contentment.  

Application: God desires a love relationship with us.  It is a relationship designed to last not just a lifetime, but all of eternity.  He is the author of life, of salvation, and all that is good.  Seek God above all.

Prayer: Daddy, thank You that You are good.  There are seasons in our lives that are challenging, sometimes even seemingly unbearable, yet in the midst of it all, You are God.  You are the Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end.  May I/we delight solely in You.  Teach me/us to Love you beyond anyone/thing, etc. Amen!
