My Beloved is mine—and I am His!',

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

"My Beloved is mine!" He is . . .
the  Saviour 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 had never chosen Him. 

He redeemed me—or I had still been a slave. 

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

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

He manifested Himself to me—or I had 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
