I woke up at 4.00am with a prompting to just spend time with God. Not praying or interceding for anyone… just chilling. I opened my NIV Bible to Hosea 2 - verses 14 and 16 leapt out at me,
"...Therefore I am now going to allure her;
I will lead her into the desert
and speak tenderly to her…
…In that day," declares the LORD,
"you will call me 'my husband';
you will no longer call me 'my master’… "
The word “My Beloved” kept coming to me and I just knew it applied to me. I was reminded of a song we used to sing in church based on Song of Solomon 2:16
“I am my Beloved’s and He is mine”
O praise be to You, Lover of my soul!
