Here it goes...

The next 7 days are going to be crazy....


I've read Song of Solomon before and I guess I should give some backstory.


I'm not perfect, nor have I ever been. But my biggest struggle would have to be with my relationships with girls. (Like dating and stuff lol there was no good way to word that).

To make long stories short, around the spring of last year I took a break from my normal Bible reading to go through Song of Solomon. The little introduction that my study Bible has pointed out the fact that Song of Solomon can be looked at in two ways..

1. Love between man and woman

2. Love between Christ and His church.

So I read every chapter twice, once with Christ and His church in mind and then with man and woman in mind.

I learned alot about what love really is...and I still have a ton more to learn. That's why I'm so stoaked to dive back in this book.

Something to make note of though:

This book talks about sex.
Probably one of the most life changing things I've learned is how twisted the world's view of sex is. There are two lies that the world tells us (and most of us belive them)

1. Sex is dirty.
Sex shouldn't be viewed as something dirty, but it should be views as something sacred.

2. Sex is for "Adults only"
Actually sex is for married couples only, I dont care if your 18 or 85.

I'm sorry if this seems a little weird, but the truth is...the world has a twisted view of sex that is so totaly opposite of the Bible. And don't worry, not everything in Song of Solomon has to do with sex because there is way more to loving someone than wanting to have sex with them.

Song of Solomon has alot to teach us about what love really is...the next 7 days are going to be good.
