“Arise, my love, my beautiful one,
    and come away,
for behold, the winter is past;
    the rain is over and gone.
The flowers appear on the earth,
    the time of singing has come,
and the voice of the turtledove
    is heard in our land.
The fig tree ripens its figs,
    and the vines are in blossom;
    they give forth fragrance.
Arise, my love, my beautiful one,
    and come away.
Song of Solomon 2:10-13

I love you my Christ, my friend and the one whom my soul loves!

Your Word revives me, gives me hope and touches my soul with your voice that speaks back to me. You always prove your sweet presence, always there for me, caring for me, supporting, strengthening; comforting me with your tender love and divine presence. You are here, my King. You speak to me and answer me.

Your affectionate tender voice tells me to Arise. You call me ‘your love’ and ‘beautiful one’ .

You call me to come away with you, and only you. What a great honor, what an extravagant love you have for me. You want to pull me out of darkness, out of that dry season, out of all insecurities, and out of this world. Let us run my love, take me hand in hand, let your power draw me after you, and closer to you.

The uncomfortable winter is past and you are taking me into that new fresh season of freshness and gladness. You assure me, the winter is past and now spring is here, peace, calmness and your deep joy is here.

The sun of your righteousness is warming up my heart all over again; igniting my soul with your fire and your fierce love.

Flowers are here, a sign of fruitfulness. Your Spirit revives my soul.

I taste from the fig tree and I taste the sweetness of your healing, I take pleasure in smelling its fragrance.

You are my strength, my support, the true vine, I can do nothing without you.

You are the rose of Sharon, pleasing to my eyes, a refreshing odor to my smell.

You insist that I enjoy this new season, this spring time, winter is over, the rain is over.

The rivers are sparkling back again and the rays of your shining light is reflecting on my heart warmth and fire to love you deeper, and wider. I love you Lord. I love you my Jesus; I belong to you and this is the place where I want to be. Hide me in your divine presence.

You make all things new; Everything is fresh again.

The time of signing has come. You surround me with beautiful rhythms of songs of deliverance, of freedom, of love. You are the desire of my heart, Jesus.

Oh how the fragrance of your love fills my innermost.

You are beautiful, my Lord and my master.

You are my portion forever.
