Our LORD Beckons-Come Away With Me
by Mary Meile
During corporate prayer time the LORD entered in among us so softly. His presence was filled with such love; but there was also a measure of sorrow flowing from his heart to ours. I heard the LORD speak so gently and the words penetrated deep within my heart. The LORD asked us to woo him; like a lover that we are longing for and want to capture to ourselves and please. He said, “Ask me to come away with you, desire me, make me first place in all things; won’t you make time for me. Gently, he whispers, won’t you come and woo me to yourself? Come away with your beloved one; I am waiting, longing to hear your voice and desires.
My beloved brothers and sisters, our LORD is calling his children; gently like a soft misty rain. How can we refuse our precious LORD Jesus Christ? There is such a sense of sorrow in this request as the LORD is asking us to make time for him and tell him what he means to us. The days are swift and before we know it another day has passed by and we do not make time to enter in with our beloved: the Darling of heaven. The very one that laid his life down that we may have everlasting life!
I ask that you meditate upon these words. Take time today and search your heart. Is he the King of your life and lover of your soul? Do you desire him more than anyone or anything else? Is he first place? Do you desire his presence more than worldly wealth or even life itself?
Reach out and commune with him today. Ask the LORD to help you and teach you. Ask to be filled with a hunger and desire for more of his presence and ways. Then take a few minutes to declare what he does mean to you and your love for him. Be prepared to receive his love as he will always respond back to us when we seek him with all of our hearts. Blessings to you and yours.
