Or did you see those who were married and say to yourself I want to find a spouce even though you may not have known that your 'soul mate' even existed.. or maybe existed and went to war and never came home or something tragic like that...
Did you marry the first person you went out on a date with? did you crown the first person to bring you flowers your soul mate? or did you keep asking and seeking (this is what Jesus Identifies as knocking) till you found the guy you ultimately married? If you had to go through 100 A-holes to find the guy your with now would you do that? or would you give up and just not have married?
I had no desire to marry until after meeting my husband so I wasn't looking for a spouse. Love and marriage have never been my main focus in life so I think you analogy falls flat with me.
The only comparison between my relationship with my husband and Jesus is ....nothing. Unless Jesus is a great lover and gets cranky when his knees start to hurt, I just don't see the similarity.
