“When I passed by you again and looked upon you, indeed your time was the time of love; so I spread my wing over you and covered your nakedness. Yes, I swore an oath to you and entered into a covenant with you, and you became mine,” says the Lord GOD. Ezekiel 16:8
Abba Lord Father. You are God who is merciful, compassionate, patient and always ready to forgive. We reflect about your great love, marvelous kindness and tender affection for us. We are truly undeserving and nothing is lovely in us that may catch your attention. Then you looked upon us with mercy and grace. You redeemed and delivered us from the disgrace of being slaves of sins. You gave us life and covered our shame with the wings of your love. We are now the apple of your eyes and offered your everlasting love. We chose us to be your betrothed wife in righteousness, justice, steadfast love, mercy and faithfulness. All of these are really priceless.
Abba Lord God. Your love gives us peace and security even in the midst difficulties and temptations we face each day. Help us to be faithful in the Covenant of Love. Like a loyal wife to his husband, we may prove our loyalty to you. Let us be your honor and glory through our obedience and through the holiness of our lives. With your love that sustains us, we have the courage and strength to accept all the consequences and cost of it. For we are assured that you will never leave us nor forsake us. Thank you, oh God for your intimate love for us. Amen.
