A POST FROM MY FIANCE!
In all reality and with my heart completely bare- I’ve been struggling with finding my place since I’ve been home. I can’t seem to balance what I know my heart longs for with what I know I have to do for a season.
Song of Solomon 2:4 “…His banner over me is love.”
When the Lord calls my name- how loudly does he have to speak? Is it a shout? Or a whisper? If he calls me to his side, will I go? Will I sit right next to Him?
Why can’t I believe that he has called me to his side? He wants to whisper his love to me, as I sit- right beside him- and allow his banner of love to cover me.
Out of this intimacy springs a relationship so unmatched in depth and commitment that the world cannot help but stop to see. Confidence is found in that intimacy and in knowing how great the love the Father lavished on me.
Surrender leads to deeper levels of trust, and trust leads to fulfillment of the promise. The pieces of life seem to fit together. The passions of my heart meet the gifts of my Father. Together the two go forth into the world- into the nations- and meet the needs of the lost, dying; hurting…
…and now I know the place I belong. Now I know where I am called and where I fit in this life. Right here. Right beside the One who calls my name and sings his love over me. Right under his arm. So here I will stay… and wait…here I will learn trust…
Find His banner and let it rest over you.
