Encounter God's Heart…

Devoted

Nothing goes unnoticed by the Lord. He holds every tear, knows the times you’ve said yes to him when it was difficult to do so, and understands the questions that cause your heart and mind to conflict. These moments of undying devotion to God are precious to him.

Never doubt whether he's listening or watching—he always is. He sees every sacrifice you make. The things you've cast aside to follow him have caught his attention. Your love touches his heart profoundly. Your devotion rises to him as a pleasing offering. Jesus is cheering you on. He champions your cause and will bless all that you've laid at his feet. Don't give up! Lift your hands and raise your voice in songs of praise and shouts of victory! He is even more devoted to you than you are to him.

What an honor it is to follow you, Lord. All that I am and hold dear, I submit to you. May my love bless you, like a costly and fragrant offering. May my worship be a pleasing sound to your ears. May my total devotion always be the guiding force of all that I say and do.

From The Divine Romance written by Brian Simmons and Gretchen Rodriguez

Song of Songs 6:5

The Passion Translation

Turn your eyes from me; I can't take it anymore! I can't resist the passion of these eyes that I adore. Overpowered by a glance, my ravished heart—undone. Held captive by your love, I am truly overcome! For your undying devotion to me is the most yielded sacrifice.
