We thank You, Lord, that Jesus comes to us in love: "the voice of my
Beloved! Look! Here He comes" (Song of Solomon 2:8). We thank You that
He calls us to come to Him: "Arise, my love, my beautiful one, and come
away" (Song of Solomon 2:10). He calls us to belong to Him - to have the
assurance of salvation, which has this joyful testimony: "My Beloved is
mine, and I am His" (Song of Solomon 2:16). Help us, Lord, to receive
the love of Jesus, and to rejoice in His love.
By Your grace, Lord, You call us to be Your soldiers and servants. Help us not to be "fearful and fainthearted" (Deuteronomy 19:19). Help us to be "good soldiers of Jesus Christ" (2 Timothy 2:3). When we hear your challenging question: "Who is on the Lord's side?", may we give our committed answer: "By Thy call of mercy, by Thy grace divine, we are on the Lord's side; Saviour, we are Thine."
