"There's nothing we want more!"

We sang this song at Emerge this week and I really love it now. It is from Song of Songs. The words are all amazing, but I think the bridge has the greatest words. "I don't want to talk about You like You're not in the room. I want to look right at You. I want to sing right to You." I think this is awesome because I often find myself talking, praying, even worshiping like its to some distant God, but Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit are so incredibly personal I can't imagine what our faith would be like without them. "There is nothing we want more" than Christ in our lives and to worship Him.

"Come be the fire inside of me!"

“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 wash it away.
If one were to give
all the wealth of his house for love,
it would be utterly scorned.”

-Song of Songs 8:6-7
