January 19 – Evening

Read

Place me like a seal over your heart, like a seal on your arm; for love is as strong as death, its jealousy unyielding as the grave. It burns like blazing fire, like a mighty flame. Many waters cannot quench love; rivers cannot sweep it away. If one were to give all the wealth of one’s house for love, it would be utterly scorned.

(Song of Solomon 8:6-7)

Pray

Dear God,

You are the embodiment of love, strong and unyielding. Your love for us is like a blazing fire, consuming and unquenchable. May we always seek to pursue Your love with the same passionate intensity shown in this verse. Help us to cling to You in every aspect of our lives, to never let go of the love that You have for us.

We pray for Your guidance and wisdom to show that same level of love to others, to nurture and protect those around us. Let our love be as unyielding and unending as Yours, and help us to always remember the power of love in all that we do.

In Jesus’ name, Amen.
