Me: I want to be the bride whose heart is ablaze With fires of devotion igniting deepest praise Nothing distracts her attention to faithfully prepare Gathering oil for her lamp from everywhere There are many options and fun things to do She turns away from those, her groom’s desires to pursue Following the Holy Spirit as He leads the way Centering her attention on that special day Lord: The Holy Spirit provides the oil for those with burning hearts When you follow closely, an anointing He imparts Distributing the gifts sent from the Father’s hand So, in the day of evil, you will be able to stand I am looking for those whose hearts are ablaze You have stolen My heart, held captive by your gaze Beautiful you are, there is no flaw in you Come away with Me to tread the mountain’s dew Debbie Furey June 9, 2021 Psalm 45:9–11 – “Daughters of kings are among your honored women; at your right hand is the royal bride in gold of Ophir. 10 Listen, daughter, and pay careful attention: Forget your people and your father’s house. 11 Let the king be enthralled by your beauty; honor him, for he is your lord.” Song of Solomon 4:9–10 – “You have stolen my heart, my sister, my bride; you have stolen my heart with one glance of your eyes, with one jewel of your necklace. 10 How delightful is your love, my sister, my bride! How much more pleasing is your love than wine, and the fragrance of your perfume more than any spice!” Matthew 25:1-13 Revelation 19:7-9 Song of Solomon 5:2
