Belonging

To long for something is to have an earnest or strong desire for it.

To belong is to be in relationship to it.

Longing for your lover is fulfilled in belonging to your lover.

As we belong to Christ, He, too, belongs to us.

We long to be in relationship with Christ. He has longed to be in relationship with us.

Dear reader, there is nothing we have to do but to accept this. Christ alone has done the work to make our relationship with Him possible.

Accept Him as your Lover. You belong to Him and He belongs to you.
