Rejoice

Are you rejected? Rejoice!
Are you excluded? Rejoice
Are you cast out? Rejoice!

You are being called out for a one-on-one relationship with Him and He will use every method necessary to get your attention. The bride must make herself ready, and that cannot be done within a crowd. An engaged couple spends more time together than with family and friends. They get to know as much as possible about each other.

The bride-to-be must learn His ways, His plans, His heart. This 'known by experience' God is calling you into a special relationship with Him. For truly, you are not being rejected, but called, called apart, called to a fellowship with the One Who knows you. He gives only what is best for you, for your relationship with Him.

He has said; "...Arise, my darling, my beautiful one, and come with ME. See! The winter is past; the rains are over and gone. Flowers appear on the earth; the season of singing has come, the cooing of doves is heard in our land. The fig tree forms it's early fruit, the blossoming vines spread their fragrance. Arise, come, my darling, my beautiful one, come with me." Song of Songs 2:10-13.

Embrace the separation, revel in it. Join hands with your lover and run in to Him. Run to His glory, His unending love, His presence. Run into the security which teaches you that no weapon formed against you will prosper and He will never leave you or forsake you.

Bride! Make ready!
