Beloved

I just wanted to write out the lyrics to the chorus of a song from Tenth Avenue North's albumn 'Over and Underneath'. No credit to me - all theirs :)

You're my beloved
Lover I'm yours
Death shall not part us
It's you I died for
For better or worse
Forever we'll be
My love it unites us
And it binds you to me
It's a mystery

Sometimes I think we forget how much He loves us. We concentrate so much on how we don't deserve His mercy (which we don't) and how much He sacrificed (which He did) and how much we love Him and give ourselves to Him.
But this song helps remind me that He has also given Himself to me - I am His and He is mine. I am His bleoved, His lover - He died for me, as an indiviual not part of a group. Our relationship is dependant on His love, not mine and His love is consistent, unconditional and neverending. Isn't that amazing?
In Him I have everything I need - He is mine and I am His. This will not change by His hand - only by mine, and I intend to stay close to Him all the days of my life. I hope you do too :)
