My Beloved

I am in love with Him, my Beloved.

I long to be with Him, feel His presence. I listen always for His voice.

I remember that day when He came and rescued me, I replay it, amazed still that He found me and He wanted me.

Even though He is the King of Kings, He loved me. Even though I didn't deserve it, He took me in His arms and He will never let me go, although I am free to walk away.

He listens to my cries and He fights for me. He rejoices when I rejoice, He comforts me when I am broken and downhearted.

He never forsakes me, never leaves me on my own.

And there is nothing, not one single thing that I would trade for the opportunity to see His face.

This world has dissappointed me, I have been let down, but not by Him, never by Him.

He is the sweetness that sustains me, the courage that infuses me, the love that lifts me.

He is my truest friend.

I want to live my life in such a way that You will be honored by the love I have for you. I don't want to leave room for questions or for doubts about my closeness to You. I know that having a relationship with You is the most important thing in my life. You are my Love, my Life, my All.
