Worship at the Wellಮಾದರಿ

Throughout our days we encounter many voices, each fighting for our attention. Work, family, social media, our own bodies' needs and desires, but if we take a moment to listen, we’ll always hear another voice, our Beloved calling out to us.

 Now, even though our Beloved intensely desires our attention, affection, and communion, He doesn’t impose Himself. In this passage we see that after leaping over hills and mountains to get to us, He stops right outside our walls, looking in through our windows. He will not burst through and force us to love Him because true and holy intimacy comes in the form of an invitation where both parties willingly yield themselves in love to one another. Our Beloved is the same, we don’t have to strive to encounter His affections or invitations, He’s done all the work for us, all He needs now is a response. 

 It is time for the Bride to respond to the call of her Beloved, to drop everything and run when He peeks in and whispers "arise and come away with me". Sisters and brothers, our Beloved is calling out to us in this hour. My question for you is this: when He comes to the walls of your heart when He whispers through the windows of your busy schedule when He knocks at the door of what's normal and comfortable inviting you to "arise and come away", will you respond?
