Jesus and Mr. Darcy

So.. I have now officially watched Pride and Prejudice 3 times in the last 24 hours. 1/8th of my entire day. It took over my dreams. It conquered my breakfast, it captivated my afternoon. I love Netflix, but I can’t mail it back until Tuesday… at this rate, I might never leave the house…

So I started to ask, “Lord, why is this resonating with my soul? What do you want me to learn?” Resonation means that there is something eternal to it that I must learn from… here is what I was told in my meditations…

1. I will always pursue you.
2. I may not speak often, but that does not mean there is a lack of love.
3. I will work behind the scenes to do what is best for you and those you love.
4. I know you.
5. I know where you have come from: your family history, good and bad.
6. Your riches may affect who you are and how you experience the world, but it does not change my love for you.
7. It is OK if you get mad and yell at Me. I can take it, and I will not go away.
8. I know beauty is important to you, but it is your character that charms Me.
9. You may run from Me, but when you seek Me, you will find Me.
10. My house is full of riches- waiting for you, all yours, if you will have Me.
11. Our union is not one to be flaunted. Out of our love, others will be blessed.
12. People will not understand your devotion to Me. We know each other uniquely.
13. Others may see Me as stern, and to them, that is as far as they care to look.
14. I am ravished by you.
15. Our love may be under attack. Be prepared to defend it.
16. I saw you from across the room, and I picked you. Thank you for asking Me to dance.
17. I am not afraid of your hard questions. I have nothing to hide from you.
18. Your future is now with Me. I hold nothing from you when you are with Me.
19. I am not impressed by flattery, showing off or falseness. I see through that to true motives.
20. You do not have to have special talents to win my affections. Your attempts do charm Me, though.
21. When we dance, it is ours. There is no one else in the room. That is OK with Me.
22. Communication can stop many issues before they arise. Talk to Me. Don’t be afraid.
23. I have written you letters explaining Myself. They are there for you to discover.
24. I will never force Myself upon you. I will wait for your affection. I am patient.
25. I like long walks, too.
26. I love artistic expression. I want to show you who I am through art.
27. I will show up where and when you least suspect Me. Watch for Me.
28. Cherish your family and close friends. They help you see and better understand what love is.
29. Temporarily delaying gratification truly makes the end much sweeter.
30. I like my women….sassy.
