Our hope unveiled-

As vows are exchanged,
Lord, my obscured mortal eye,
It Vacillates....
between joyful tears expressed
and pain filled ones You've dried

This transient veil that separates us though...
It can be as pellucid as my lung' s last lingering breath,
or as opaque as my heart's pounding and palpable pride.

But a hope filled singularity
WILL finally sublimely consummate
that presence always felt
As the dimensional veil is lifted,
and our souls kiss on the other side.

The congregation of angels
they rejoice over witnessing this Romance most Divine
Between Bridegroom and His sanctified and Radiantly transformed Bride!

Hosea 2: 16-23
“And in that day, declares the Lord, you will call me ‘My Husband,’ and no longer will you call me ‘My Baal.’ For I will remove the names of the Baals from her mouth, and they shall be remembered by name no more. And I will make for them a covenant on that day with the beasts of the field, the birds of the heavens, and the creeping things of the ground. And I will abolish the bow, the sword, and war from the land, and I will make you lie down in safety. And I will betroth you to me forever. I will betroth you to me in righteousness and in justice, in steadfast love and in mercy. I will betroth you to me in faithfulness. And you shall know the Lord

I am jealous for you with a godly jealousy. I promised you to one husband, to Christ, so that I might present you as a pure virgin to him.
2 Corinthians 11;:2 NIV
