Song of Solomon: His Banner Over Me

He has taken me to the banquet hall,
   and his banner over me is love
. - Song of Solomon 2:2 NIV

Would we live different lives if we really knew how much God loves us, how beautiful we are to him, how precious?  Would we stop beating ourselves up for our failings and concentrate instead on how lovely he is?  If only we would see God through the eyes of love and be convinced that he sees us that way as well.  What a weight would be lifted, what a remarkable gift of freedom we would receive.  Of course, it's all been promised to us, it's there for the taking.  The banquet hall is open and draped with the banners of his love.  We just have to enter.
