I began praising on Monday with this https://loveatlast.org/rather-boast-multitude-of-counselors/#comment-452,
No, actually, it started Sunday after I hung up from FaceTiming with my sister for another 4-5 hours (since God began to RYR https://loveatlast.org/ryr/) that's when reality finally sunk in! I wasn't dreaming!!
Let me share that this was boldly shared with me by my very close friend, Paula https://encouragingwomen.org/tag/paula/
another lovesick bride who has inspired me to continue becoming closer to my Husband and confirm the promise I read every single day moments after my morning coffee with my Beloved for months.
âEnlarge the site, the place of your tent, stretch out the curtains of your dwellings, stretch wide, build an addition, do NOT HOLD BACK, SPARE NO EXPENSE! Lengthen your ropes and drive your stakes, your pegs, in deep, firmly in the SOLID ground. â I542
It's this part...NOT HOLD BACK, SPARE NO EXPENSE! that changed from me thinking of it as a "money" expense, but more valuableâ the expense of looking foolishâor in this caseâdriving her far from any sort of connection with my sister, seeing the Lord as her Husband!!
This Will Be (An Everlasting Love)

Lyrics
Ooh, oh, ooh, oh, yeah
Ooh, hmm
This will be, an everlasting love
This will be, the one I've waited for
This will be, the first time anyone has loved me
Oh, oh
I'm so glad, you found me in time
And I'm so glad that you've rectified my mind
This will be, an everlasting love for me
Oh, oh
Loving you, is some kind of wonderful
Because you show me, just how much you care
You've given me the thrill of a lifetime
And made me believe you've got more thrills to spare, oh
This will be, an everlasting love, oh, yes it will now
You've brought a lot of sunshine into my life
You've filled me with happiness I never knew
You gave me more joy than I ever dreamed of
And no one, no one can take the place of you, ooh
This will be, you and me, yes siree, eternally
Hugging and squeezing and kissing and pleasing
Together, forever, through rain or whatever
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, you and me
So long as I'm living, true love I'll be giving
To you I'll be serving 'cause you're so deserving
Hey, you're so deserving, you're so deserving
Yeah, yeah, yeah, oh-oh
Love, love, love, love, love, love
Love, love, love, love
Love, love, love, love, love
Love, love, love
From now on, from now on
From now on, from now on
From now on, from now on
From now on, from now on
From now on, from now on
From now on, from now on
It is the part that could have caused me to pull back, but I am SOOOO THANKFUL I didn't! My sister went on to say, now that I'm thinking about it, "it's more like He's kissing us on our face, a cheek, but in a loving way that you can really feel."
WOW, "yes!!! exactly" is what I think I said. I am still a bit speechless to be honest.
All I can say is TRUST HIM, for all the women in your life you LOVE dearly, and you know need HIM as their Husband for every reason YOU need Him.
That's part 2... you can only GIVE as much as you've GOT. So FALL IN LOVE, move from praise songs and hymns, which are both great but aren't going to move you from reverential love to the kind of love women NEED and are DESPERATE for from a HUSBAND.
Thank you for sharing this, I know this song, but I have never listened to it in terms of Him. Now I will never be able to hear it without thinking of my Beloved Husband! My favourite love song also has something in that says: “I know you haven’t made your mind up yet” and I am like: “But I did” Hahahaha, but He assured me to just enjoy the song with Him and not be worried about every little thing.
I LOVE the way you think!!!!! OH, my, life-changing, as my DIL loves to say!!! I always stayed away from songs that I was familiar withânot realizing that I could change who/what I used to think and turn my focus on HIM!! Brilliant, what a brilliant, wise woman you are and a wonderful minister Yvonne. We just have to extend our RMI honeymoons FOREVER by cutting back on all ADM for us all.
Love this….
This will be…
An everlasting love!!
