You may begin with a song to praise the Lord and complete you devotion by singing another praise song.

耶 路 撒 冷 的 眾 女 子 啊 , 我 囑 咐 你 們 : 若 遇 見 我 的 良 人 , 要 告 訴 他 , 我 因 思 愛 成 病 。 

                                                                雅 歌 5:8

 I adjure you, O daughters of Jerusalem,
    if you find my beloved,
that you tell him
    I am sick with love.
                                                              Song of Songs 5:8

    What I got today from Jesus is: Come back to me

    If you have watched the movie "Somewhere in Time 時光倒流70年", you should know what Solomon means "I am sick with love". Actually, Michelle and I went to see that movie seven times when we were dating and deeply in love in 1980.  The line "Richard, come back to me!" and the act of the old woman is perhaps one of the most catching scenes in all the movies I have watched.

    But, this time in the Bible is about Jesus asking us to come back to Him.

    It is so easy for us to be away from Jesus and do not have that kind of deep love as the relationship of a loving husband and wife. That's what this book Song of Songs wants to tell us, teach us and help us to enter into this kind of deep love with Jesus.

    Do you know Jesus loves you like that? How much do you love Jesus?  
    
Dear Lord Jesus,
Lead us to enter into a deeper and deeper relationship with you.  In Jesus name we pray. Amen.

耶 路 撒 冷 的 眾 女 子 啊 , 我 指 著 羚 羊 或 田 野 的 母 鹿 囑 咐 你 們 : 不 要 驚 動 、 不 要 叫 醒 我 所 親 愛 的 , 等 他 自 己 情 願  。

                                                                雅 歌2:7

 I adjure you, O daughters of Jerusalem,
    by the gazelles or the does of the field,
that you not stir up or awaken love
    until it pleases.
                                                              Song of Songs 2:7

    What I got today from Jesus is: Jesus is waiting for you

    Song of Songs is a book using love songs to describe the love of God to us and with us. It's about the lover and His beloved. It's about Jesus and you.

    It's about how patient Jesus waits for you to come back to Him. Be willing to be loved by Him as your husband. Be obedience to Him as your Lord and King.

    Jesus leads me to think of quite a number of people who have left me all those years because of misunderstanding and all kinds of reasons. There is no way to explain to them what really happen because once a relationship is broken there is no trust and they won't listen. What I can do is to pray, to fast and to wait.

    That's how Jesus is doing now. He is waiting for you!  
    
Dear Lord Jesus,
Help us to know how much you love us so that we can fall in love with you.  In Jesus name we pray. Amen.
