Hear the Voice of Truth…

 The Beloved


1 Behold, you are fair, my love!

Behold, you are fair!

You have dove's eyes behind your veil.

Your hair is like a flock of goats,

Going down from Mount Gilead.

2 Your teeth are like a flock of shorn sheep

Which have come up from the washing,

Every one of which bears twins,

And none is barren among them.

3 Your lips are like a strand of scarlet,

And your mouth is lovely.

Your temples behind your veil

Are like a piece of pomegranate.

4 Your neck is like the tower of David,

Built for an armory,

On which hang a thousand bucklers,

All shields of mighty men.

5 Your two breasts are like two fawns,

Twins of a gazelle,

Which feed among the lilies.

6 Until the day breaks

And the shadows flee away,

I will go my way to the mountain of myrrh

And to the hill of frankincense.

7 You are all fair, my love,

And there is no spot in you.—Song of Solomon 4:1-7


Beloved…Hear the words of your Bridegroom, Jesus, as He praises Your beauty and extolls your graces. You, as a believer, are His lovely bride and His words to you are truth.  Hold them in your heart and rest in His perfect love.  


Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ, 4 just as He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before Him in love, 5 having predestined us to adoption as sons by Jesus Christ to Himself, according to the good pleasure of His will, 6 to the praise of the glory of His grace, by which He made us accepted in the Beloved.—Ephesians 1:3-6


So often we listen to the self-serving and fickle voices of those around us or worse, the ugly, condemning voices in our own heads that the voice of God is drowned out and we become discouraged and disheartened.  Beloved…Hear Him!  He is the Voice of Truth.  Fill your mind, heart and soul with His precious word. It will be a lamp to your feet and a light to your path.
