How you say "walk in my love", (a male speaking to a female)? As if God were saying this to me in a current tense?

Notes to answerer
Asker: Here is a website that better describes the context I am looking for. In a way, "walk in my love" is a request from God (a male) to me (a female) to live in a loving way, and to "walk" meaning to live and act in a loving manner, just as I am loved. So "in my love" is the a behavior, that I should act in a loving manner just as I am loved. http://members.iquest.net/~szkotak/Walk%20in%20Love.PDF

disagree  Ron Armon: Hi Foxy. כנסי is a definite NO-NO. It's not even proper Hebrew... In the second attempt you have a typo. You probably meant השיבי באהבתי. But what's wrong with להתהלך באהבה?

neutral  Ron Armon: Hi Batya, Please see the context. The pleading poet is out, as it is God saying this
8 hrs
  -> Ron, I just thought that it reflects a wish for the female (here a metaphore for Israel if the speaker is God) for her to respond to his love, maybe it is possible to say לכי בשביל אהבתי as walkinging in a path of love?
