Eternal Love

He doesn't bring me roses
but He is called the Rose of Sharon.
He doesn't send flowers to my office/school
but He grows beautiful flowers in my garden.

He doesn't kiss me
but I sense His kiss when I feel sunshine
or softly falling rain.

He doesn't give me sparkling diamonds to wear
but the stars He set in the sky shine
even more brilliantly.

He doesn't whisper in my ear
but His still small voice is ever with me.
He isn't a valentine who has pledged lifelonglove
but He is Eternal Love.

He demonstrated it
Not by gifts or well-intentioned promises
but by offering Himself as the
fulfillment of promise.

Not by standing with me at the wedding altar
but by placing Himself on the altar.
That I may know life
That I may know Him
and love Him forever.
