"Later I passed by, and when I looked at you and saw that you were old enough for love, I spread the corner of my garment over you and covered your nakedness. I gave you my solemn oath and entered into a covenant with you, declares the Sovereign LORD, and you became mine."
Ezekiel 16:8
God describes the story of His relationship with the Israelites through an allegory which portrays Israel as a baby that later grows into a woman. God picked them up when they were discarded and lost and He entered into a holy relationship with them, but despite all that He did for them, they adulterated His love and were unfaithful.
There will be a day when the Lord tells the story of our lives. He will tell of how He found us when we were lost and hopeless and He gave us hope and a future. He will tell of how He entered into a relationship with us and gave all He had to be with us. The remainder of the story however, has yet to be written. We choose what the ending of the story will be. We can either end it like the harlotry of Israelites, or we can remain faithful to the Lord and blossom in our relationship with Him. We can either put other things first in our lives and grieve His heart, or obey Him and grow in our understanding of Him.
Choose today how you will live, while the story of your life is still being written.
