Place Me Like a Seal Over Your Heart

Jesus speaks these words quietly, asking for my total devotion.

Will I close my heart to everything that seeks to distract me away from Him?
Will I remember that my God is a jealous God? 
Will I meditate on how He loves me so much, that He suffered unspeakably to rescue me?
Will I be faithful to the One is my Bridegroom, and who has prepared a place for me in heaven?
Will I trust that He will never leave me nor forsake 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 a blazing fire, like a mighty flame.

(Song of Solomon 8:6)

Yes, and yes, and yes again. Always, my Jesus.
