In this episode, we connect with the Savior by receiving from a God who loves every detail of us, both inside and out. We hear that he calls us flawless when all we can see in ourselves is every shortcoming and broken place. We commune with a God who loves not just out of obligation, but out of a place of desire for us. We invite Him to show us deep revelation of this love fresh, so when the wind blows on us we can be a fragrance of this Perfect Love to the world around us.

In today's episode, we connect with God and receive his love from Song of Songs 3. We are painted beautiful imagery of the Savior coming for us, fragranced with suffering love, inviting us in to the bridal car with him. In this secret place, we are guarded by the mightiest of angel warriors who are completely prepared for battle and the terrors of the night. There is nothing we might face for which the Savior is unprepared, and so here is a place to rest.

In this episode we get beautiful pictures of the Love of God as the stag that bounds over mountains to get to us, the tree that produces sweet fruit, and the One who calls our true face and voice beautiful no matter how raw it might be. Today we choose to receive it and give thanks for it.

As we begin the new season of guided prayers, today we reflect and receive the Love contained in the first chapter of Song of Songs. As we read how he loves us and calls us beautiful even our most unkept state, in our darkest weaknesses, we are filled with gratitude for a love that is otherworldly. We soak up being with a Lover who is stable and true, one who is the very foundation of our relationship, so it can't be shaken.

In our final episode in the book of Psalms, we thank God for his desire to be provider in every way. We acknowledge that our strength is nothing, that it's all been him. Every meal we eat, every time we have energy when we didn't think we had an ounce left, and every rescue that happened because he heard our cry. We lift our eyes up and praise the one who is our source, and the one who never ignores the cries of his children!

In this familiar psalm, we are reassured of the depths God goes to search and know us. He knows our every thought, every plan, every tendency, every quirk, and he never stops seeking us out, to know us more. And while he knows us better than any other, he promises to also stay nearer than anyone else. He is with us every moment, from our rising to our resting, from conception to death and beyond. We can breathe a sigh of relief to have the Savior our heart has longed for.

In this episode we soak in truths that we desperately need. The truth that God is the builder of everything in our lives. We can stay up late, we can rise early, we can try our hardest and end up with nothing but rubble and exhaustion to show for it. When we choose to let him build and follow his lead, we get the rest he longs to give us. He is the watchman guarding us and our family's lives, so we can unwind and enjoy our days.

In this episode, our hearts join in celebrating and believing in a God who redeems his people. We receive pictures of hope where we have felt empty. We cling to the promise that those who sow in tears, those who have been in a season of mourning, those who have given when they had nothing to give, and those who stepped out in faith when it was hard, they all will reap in joy and in a harvest!

In this episode, we take a moment to appreciate how different our life is because of God's help. We give him the honor he is due for all the times that we should have drowned in our lives, but his strong hand saved us. Because of Jesus, we rejoice that we have been freed from the cage that we were trapped in. We are free!

In this Psalm we receive the truth that His love endures forever. We open up to believe that he is always right next to us, experiencing what we do with us, ready to be our help right when we need it. We express gratitude for the way the Kingdom works, that those that are rejected by man are raised up to places of honor and importance.
