I am black, and lovely, O daughters of Jerusalem…Don’t see me only as dark, because the sun has looked upon me this way. My brother’s burned in anger with me; they made me guard the vineyards; but I have not guarded my own. Tell me, you whom my soul loves, where do you go to feed your flocks? Why should I be as one that is veiled by the flocks of your companions? ~Song 1:5-7

King David, Solomon’s father, was said to be a man “after God’s own heart.” Not so much after His mind, His purpose, His plans, but His heart. There’s something passionate in this that I can’t shake.

There is a place for meeting our own needs, but there is also a critical time for going on with the Lord in maturity. The Bride in the Song of Songs is not a woman wandering in doubt of who she is or what she wants in life.
