“His desire is toward me.” (SS 7:10)
My Savior, it is this especially that I crave at your hand: unveil to me the love of your heart that makes you long so much after me. I know that this is one of the secret things that remain for your dearest friends, and I hardly dare reckon myself among them. And yet, Lord, may I venture to do so. Grant me, I pray, one more glance into your heart, that I may know how earnestly you desire me.
You would have me as your own possession.
You would enter into the deepest communion with me.
You would communicate Yourself to me.
You would become one with me.
You would have me for Yourself.
My Jesus, if this be really so, cause me to feel it. Let not my heart remain in darkness. Then shall I turn away from all else, and my life shall be filled with one supreme desire – Jesus, my King and my Friend.
– Andrew Murray, The Lord’s Table
Wow! How I needed this today! So powerful……so mind-boggling……..so elusive. Lord, I believe. Help my unbelief!
Thanks for sharing and for being you, Scott!
Happy September, Kelli!
Yep, this is how I was greeted a couple mornings ago as I sat before the Lord. These are the thoughts the Lord gave me to think through Murray’s pen. I’m grateful they mattered to you too my friend.

Couldn’t agree more, Marie! ☺️
Happy new month to you!
