I am so sorry for the confusion on this post. I saved the picture and title, but it erased my first attempt at writing this. I hope you enjoy it! Its my take on the Song of songs. Enjoy!
I search for the One my soul loves. Where did He go? Is He caravaning with us? He is mine. I long for more in my relationships, my marriage, in my life. I want to be taken higher, plunge me deep in Your love for me. Be my Lover, and my true Friend. Help me trust in You more. Only You can satisfy. Only You can save me. Just slow it all down, please, in my head. I need Your touch to pause on this so I can breathe.
You better watch out! My God is bigger and better than you. His army is stronger, His plan is bigger, and His reach is farther than you will ever know. When the traffic gets thick and no one remembers my name- when I’ve lost everything and nothing makes sense anymore- You will find me. Your love O God, it amazes me. You dress my feet in elegant sandals. When all else is muddy and dirty, You dress me in purple robes and put a crown on my head. I just want to sit quietly with You, while You caress my brow and speak sweetly to me. You refresh me, God. O never ever lose the wonder of Your mercy. I sing Hallelujah, Hallelujah, You go God. Your love for me is as big as the sky, as powerful as mighty thunder, and sweet and refreshing as the fall breeze. Clothe me in white, so I won’t be ashamed. Let me shout it from the rooftops! My God reigns.
Lord, light my fire again. Give me new fire- to burn as strongly and brightly as possible. But be the Lover that I seek, always. Drive me along at Your pace. So when I am old and gray I can say-I lived a life full of Your truth and grace. Like the hawk who flies ahead, may my wings be tuned to Your voice.
Let Him kiss me with the kisses of His mouth! For Your love is better than wine; Your anointing oils are fragrant. Draw me after You, let us run. The King has brought me into His chambers. Arise, my beautiful one, for behold the winter is past the rain is over and gone, and come away with me. Let me see Your face, let me hear Your voice. I love Him! He is so so Beautiful to me. His name is like honey on my lips. He lives in me and I am completely His. He is My Jesus, Lover of my soul.

Something’s broken. I don’t see the post on my end.

Ahhhhh… I just felt my mind relax and rest. Your imagery is beautiful and vivid. I too long to feel the coolness of the Holy Spirit dealing sweetly with me. One day, no more longing. Thank you Becky!

Thank you Amy! O how I long to just sit and be with Him. I like to remember to just be with Him no matter what I’m doing. It is sweet indeed! He is my Master Commander, and I know I can rest with Him any time of day or night. Hallelujah! My God reigns.
