My Beloved is mine — and I am His!

(James Smith)

"My Beloved is mine — and I am His!" Song of Solomon 2:16

"My Beloved is mine!" He is . . .
  the Savior in whom I believe and trust;
  the Husband whom I reverence and love;
  the Lord whom I adore and obey;
  the portion on which I live; and
  the beloved One upon whom my heart and affections are set.

"And I am His!"
He chose me — or I would have never chosen Him.

He redeemed me — or I would have still been Satan's slave.

He called me — or I would have still been wandering from God.

He sanctified me — or I would have still been vile and polluted.

He manifested Himself to me — or I would have never seen His glory.

"I am His!"
I am His spouse.

I am His portion.

I am His delight.

I am His choice out of all worlds.

I am His glorious crown!

"My Beloved is mine — and I am His!" Song of Solomon 2:16
