“Ah, I hear him-my lover! Here he comes, leaping on the mountains and bounding over the hills. My lover is like a swift gazelle or a young deer. Look, there he is behind the wall! Now he is looking in through the window, gazing into the room.” Song of Songs 2:8-9
From the moment I met Him I knew He was the one. It is the sweetness of His words that melt my heart. The more I am around Him the more I want to be with Him. The compliments He showers me with make me feel loved and adored. He tells me that I am His and His alone. There is not a minute that goes by that I do not want to be wrapped in His arms. I want all of Him. His love overwhelms me with emotion.
He tells me that I was created for Him and that every part of me is beautiful. When I sit in His presence I can’t help but to gaze upon His beauty. When I think of Him or hear His name it warms my soul.
Number 5 on our list of things to crave-Intimacy
He is the only sure thing in my life! The intimacy we share is like non-other. He is the very one I wake and run to. He holds nothing back and showers me with His faithfulness. He is committed to me and I to Him.
He laughs when I laugh and cries when I cry. He is strong and secure! He is thoughtful and comforting. No other person could ever understand the closeness we have. He accepts me for all that I am, and loves me regardless of my flaws. Our relationship is no secret, we are not afraid to show our intimacy with the world. It is true, pure and refreshing. Each day is a new day full of excitement and adventure.
I can always hear him-my lover! He comes leaping in my heart; He is swifter than a gazelle. He speaks and I stand still, tranquilized by the power and softness of His voice. His smile lights up the room. I cannot for a second take my eyes off of Him.
He is who I desire more than life itself. The thought of being without Him for a second brings unbearable sadness. He is my first and last love, I want every moment we spend together to bring Him so much joy. I want to fill His heart with all the love He so desires.
Jesus-my lover and friend! I can never get enough of His affection or love. He is the one I will die for. He is the one that knows my deepest secrets; there is nothing He does not know about me. We are open and honest leaving nothing behind. He is forgiving and real, He is compassionate, and loving, His touch, His voice, His beauty is intoxicating. He is the very person of whom all of my intimacy is given.
Prayer: Jesus the love I have for You could never be expressed in words. The love You have for me can never be thanked enough. The willingness You had to die for me and cover me in Your blood leaves me longing for more of You. Jesus I yearn for the day when I get to see You face to face. In Jesus name, Amen
