The other night I happened across a new television program, Rookie Blue, starring, among others, Missy Peregrym as Officer Andy McNally. As much as I enjoyed the show, I was really captivated by the beauty of Ms. Peregrym. I could have watched her for hours. Her looks, her smile, her (character’s) personality: wow! And there are other women, both on and off the screen, with whom I have been similarly taken. (As alluded to in a previous post, one such example is Drew Barrymore. Some of my other favorite celebrities are Sandra Bullock, Liv Tyler and Ellie Kemper.)
I realized that my appreciation of the beauty of these women, the enjoyment I experience watching them, and my desire to spend more (or some) time with them is but a small part of how God looks at us. After all, the Bible calls the Church (i.e. all true believers) the bride of Christ. Jesus delights in us, enjoys seeing us and wants to spend all of His time with us.
Wow.
