Draw me! We will run after you! The king brings me into his apartments! We will be glad and rejoice in you! We will recall [when we were favoured with] your love, more fragrant than wine. The upright [are not offended at your choice, but sincerely] love you.

Song of Solomon 1:4 - The Amplified Bible

In that verse above you are hearing the calling of the voices of the daughters of Jerusalem! Does how you feel about God match up to that expression of desire? Is your love relationship with Him anything like that? Look to God and yearn for His love that is more fragrant than wine! As you do, you will want to sing with a voice of excited praise. You will want to partake of the wine of His Spirit! Isaiah 55:1.

Catch a zeal to be in the Father's presence like those daughters of Jerusalem had. In God's presence you will find refreshing, recreation and blessed peace! It is good to have an excited eagerness to get into God's presence. Your eagerness should be like a teenager who can't wait to get out with his friends at the weekend. It should be like that of the soldier who runs up the path of his fiancee's house when he returns from a long tour of duty.

Be eager to get into His presence! Be excited to greet Him! Press up to His throne! The Holy Spirit implores you to delight in a love relationship with God. In the Book of Revelation God's Spirit calls for us to get back to this as our first priority. He calls us to an the excited relationship with the One who is to be for all of us our first love. Delight yourself in the Lord. Rev.2:4-5.

Let's be excited again in our love for God!
