My Romance with God

In many ways, our relationship with God mirrors our earthly relationships , like those between spouses, friends; parents and children; teachers and their pupils.

And as with any of these relationships that can get complicated, our relationship with God is no different. It takes a lot of work to get relationships going, exploring, discovering, getting to know each other until we get to the point that we stop second guessing, and things begin to move around like clockwork, even getting to the point when all things become too familiar and routine.

But beyond the brittle human flavors ranging from the morbid to the sanguine that we are all so familiar with, our relationship with God tends to be more complicated because we are dealing with Someone who knows us only too well, while we, on the other hand, are limited to our ignorance. As a result, our relationship evolves into a whimsical love and hate relationship.

This book is for Christians who have entered into this relationship, who remain clueless in their expectations. Finding their faith constantly challenged, they found themselves mired in a relationship that seems to be running out of steam. The daily battles we fight to survive are more than we can handle, let alone having to deal with a seemingly distant and unfathomable God.

My Romance with God chronicles an episode in my life that offers a glimpse of a God revealed, capturing an intricate intangible portrait. It is an enigmatic, vibrant and emotion racked relationship that can prove at times overwhelming; yet, it also quenches and satisfies the thirst and hunger of our spirit. Reading the Bible is good, but living it is even better, but one can never fully believe until he or she lives the Word. I have always believed that God spoke to me through these pages and I hope that He will do likewise to those who read it.
