I am not deserving, but He deserves better.
There is a section in Ephesians that compares a husband and wife to Christ and the church. I am a terrible wife.
Although it is not specifically required of me to read my Bible daily or go to church weekly, it really would be one way to show love. I could show that I care enough about the relationship to go further than a nightly prayer as I fall asleep. My money should be better invested in the church. Just overall time should be given, instead of “fitting Him in” my schedule.
While the passage is often viewed as a way to better understand how to love your spouse, I feel it can be reversed also. Dates are not specifically required, but it is a way to show love. Nightly conversations are fine and even important, but there is so much more to a relationship than just that. Gifts are not a must either, but again is another love language, same goes for time. You should want to spend time with your spouse, and the same should be for God.
I want people to know that I am in love. I want to show it. More than anything, I want Him to know it too.
Lyrics from Love Song by Jason Morant.
