Great thought to ponder.  We are His bride and we should be very intimate w/ our bridegroom.


Thank you for sharing.

--- Quote from: dessa on October 28, 2007, 01:32:32 PM ---My understanding changed six years ago as to the meaning of the first commandment.  I had thought God did not want other gods before Him because of jealousy.   And jealousy was not a pleasant word to me.

After arriving home alone in the days following my husband's sudden death I stood in the kitchen feeling very sad.  Then a sensation of peace overcame me.  A conversation began in my thoughts.

"The reason I don't want any gods before Me is for you."
"I thought it was because You are a jealous God."
"When I am first your loses aren't as devastating because I will never leave you or forsake you.  I am most important in your life."

This morning I looked up 'jealous God' in my NAS Bible and it does not appear in the New Testament.

My heart is warmed again.
