The Proposal: an Open Invitation

Have you ever wanted someone to call your own
Someone whose arms fit perfectly about in you-shaped hug . . .
Someone who breathes in tandem with you . . .
Who hears what you have not said …
Who counts every whistle as you sleep in dreams?
I do not know anyone like this on earth
I know that Y’shua watches my every step
Every breath I take, He gathers

Have you longed for someone to ask for your hand?
He woos you and bends His knee to ask for this dance.
He places His ring on your finger.
He caresses your cheek.
He loves you.
He asks if you will marry Him
… if you will be His bride.
… if you will say “yes.”

His love is deeper than any abyss of pain.
He knows your deepest longings.
He alone fills them.
He knows what each day holds.
Like an expert tailor, He fits
The world to surround you
With joy and peace.
He is your Suitor.
He pursues you recklessly
On His own white steed.
He crosses the heavens
To rescue you.
He knows your dreams, cares, and worries.
He longs to rescue you from every dragon.
To free you from every high castle and low dungeon.
He is Your Ultimate Prince Charming.
