Learning to Live as the Bride: Delight Yourself in the Lord

Sitting at His Feet

I delight to sit in His shade.... His left arm is under my head, and His right arm embraces me. Song of Songs 2:3b, 6

Mary, who sat at the Lord’s feet listening to what he said. Luke 10:39

Listen, listen to me, and eat what is good, and your soul will delight in the richest of fare. Give ear and come to Me; hear me, that your soul may live. Isaiah 55:2b-3a

As the Father has loved me, so have I loved you. Now remain in my love. John 15:9

In Your presence is fullness of joy; At Your right hand are pleasures forevermore. Psalm 16:11b NKJV

Journal Entry, Age 36
I can always go deeper in intimacy with You Jesus. There are no limits to Your depths. Take me deeper. I want to go deeper. Every moment in the conversation, every moment listening to You, this is when we go deeper.

Journal Entry, Age 36
The quiet moments with You are the ones I find the most challenging...
When I think about the actual aspects of marriage I long for most, it is the quiet moments of intimacy... having his full attention and affection. This is what I dream of most. Show me how this longing translates to spiritual intimacy. Show me how this longing for physical intimacy can draw me into seeking You more and more. You are just as real, You are loving me NOW, and You are perfect in Your desire for me. I have Your full attention and full affection NOW. Show me more about this alone time with You, Jesus.

Talk with Jesus

What are You speaking to me about this? How are You leading me to respond to Your love?
