Tell me, oh you whom I love, where you feed your flock, where you make it rest at noon. For why should I be as one who veils herself by the flocks of your companions.
Where do I find you? Where can You be found, so that I may be seen apart from all the others. I don't want to be one of the many that are near to you. I don't want to hide behind others who are dear to You. I want to be as one who draws Your eyes. Show me where to find You day by day. Show me what I must do to capture Your heart again and again.
Song of Solomon 4:9
You have ravished my heart my sister, my spouse. You have ravished my heart with one look of your eyes, with one link of your necklace.
I capture Your heart simply by turning away from everything and looking at You, simply by seeking You out. When I submit my own will to Yours, You are delighted. The only thing necessary is gazing, falling in love. This really is what I was made for... How can that be it. How can it be that I wasn't made for the miracles and discipling and evangelism; but I was
made for the seeking and searching of a man... For the gazing and desiring of a King. Teach me to focus on Onething. Teach me to do nothing but fall in love. " if I never walk on water, if I never see the miracles, just knowing, that You love me, is enough to keep me here."
Everything else doesn't matter... It is simply the reaction of knowing the Lord's heart. We cannot do anything unless by the will and COMPASSION of the Lord. When we are connected to His heart, only then do we have the compassion to WANT to heal someone, to WANT the LORD'S will done. I do not ever want to boast in my own name, only in the Lord God Almighty's, for He alone is worthy of all praise.
