What if there is something better than sex?

Wait a minute, you said,

Yeah, something better than sex.

Something better like the 

Something we were created for

Something we’re all waiting for

To be revealed so that we can all be truly healed

Internally

What if it’s something our eyes cannot yet see

In eternity

That is an eternity spent in His arms being fully known

Being held and being fully owned

Cravings fulfilled

He hears our deepest groans and our moans

Cause deep calls out to deep calls out to

I think there’s something greater than sex

I mean deeper than sex because He made sex

To represent that oneness

The union of God and His people

Holy Ghost uniting with His Steeple

Living in His Temple

Delighting in the simple things with us

Taking pleasure in just being with us

And I saw this city coming down

And it was like a bride, dressed in a wedding gown

And it was for all God’s people, the bride

And with it was a Bridegroom with burning passionate fiery eyes

And He was burning with zeal for her, for us

And yeah, I think there’s something deeper than lust

Something greater than sex

Because sex is only the mirror

And compared to what it’s reflecting

It’s inferior

To the deeper pleasures of Yahweh, 

found in spending time with Him during the day

And I want to live to say

All my fountains of pleasure are found in You Yahweh!

And all I ever want to do is spend time with Him

Like a bride; God, You’ve dazzled my eyes

And it’s such a surprise to find how much more desirable 

Than treasure you are!

And yeah, that’s better than sex

Better than hooking up quickly to be dropped the next second after sex

Bet.

And yeah, I say that’s better than sex because

we were made for something better than sex. Think about it.

    Nice. I like the idea of god being a more powerful influence in life, than sex. :)
