Courting God!

In the beginning stages of a new relationship we court the person we have become attracted to.  We think about this person day in and day out.  We want to be in their presence as often as possible and will actually diss our friends just to be with this new person in our life. As we begin to spend more time the greater our feeling become and then before you know it we are in love, doing everything under our power to please and make this person happy.  This is the same type of behavior we should put into God.  We should make every effort in getting to know Him, seeking to please and make Him happy, most importantly falling in love with Him.  That is what we were created for, to love and serve God as we love and serve our husband or wife, our children, our parents and often times our friends.  When we start "Courting God" and building a strong relationship with him, loving him, then will we fill complete and be able live life abundantly in love.
