Just to Be With You

Some of the young ladies at my church have decided to start a weekly Bible Study by Beth Moore called "A Woman's Heart." Just the opening is awesome. The study itself is an in-depth study of the tabernacle. What the tabernacle was, what it consisted of, its purpose, and just why God had it constructed.
In its simplest form, the purpose of the tabernacle was for God to have a place to meet with His people. He wanted a relationship with them. He wanted to be their guide. The Lord of all wanted to commune with mortals.
Exodus 25:22 says, " And there I will meet with thee, and I will commune with thee from above the mercy seat, from between the two cherubims which are upon the ark of the testimony..."
This awesome thought reminded me of a song I've always loved by Third Day called "Love Song." Here's the second verse and the chorus:

I've heard it said that a man would climb a mountain,
Just to be with the one he loves,
How many times has he broken that promise?
It has never been done.
I've never climbed the highest mountain,
But I've walked the hill of Calvary.

Just to be with you, I've done everything.
There's no price I did not pay, no.
Just to be with you, I'd gave everything.
Yes, I gave my life away.

The tabernacle was pointing to a sacrafice years later. A sacrafice that would ultimately bring man back into full communion with God. A sacrafice of God's only Son.
So think about that today. Someone gave up everything, just to be with you!

Thanks, Heather. That Third Day song makes me cry. And Beth Moore's studies are wonderful. I'm doing one myself right now.

I appreciate the reminder that the King of Kings loves me that much. Awesome.
