Ezekiel 34:11-12, 15-17

You my Beloved, are the Good Shepherd.  You know Your own and Your own know You.  You feed us on Your Body and You give us Your Blood to drink to strengthen and sustain us in this valley of tears.  You lead us to the heights of union with God and You make us one with the Father and You through Your Holy Spirit.  What more could we ask for my Beloved?

1 Corinthians 15:20-26, 28

My Beloved, we would do well to note the whole hearted generosity and love between Your Father and Yourself.  Each wants to outdo the Other in the outpouring of love of One to the Other and I am caught up in this love.  How wonderful it is to be part of this eternal dance of love.

Matthew 25:31-46

My Beloved, may I never forget that it is my privilege to serve.  It is You who must be glorified in my life.  All I do must point to You and must centre around You.  You must be the Alpha and Omega of my life.  Help me never to forget this my own true God.

Psalm 23:1-6

3 he restores my soul.

He guides me through the right paths

for his name’s sake.

What a beautiful line.  Truly my Beloved You have restored my soul.  You woke me and alerted me to the fact that my feet were about to stray.  You preserved me.  Thank You.
