Song of Solomon 2

Song of Solomon 2:7 NIV

"Daughters of Jerusalem, I charge you
by the gazelles and by the does of the field:
Do not arouse or awaken love
until it so desires."

This is a pretty common verse in Song of Solomon...it is in the book like 3 times but ill talk about it here

pretty much she's saying "dont have sex untill your married"...but there is a lot more to it than just that...

wait for love untill it's the right time...and untill you know better...I used to hate it when people told me that dating in highschool was a waste of my time...looking back now and i can see that they were right

I'm not saying that any of my ex's are bad people. What I'm saying is that, I thought I knew what love was but I didn't.

I know a youth leader that used to tell his students "Get your hands off of sombody else's wife!"

and that is sooo true...that's something that all guys really need to think about. Here's what I've learned,

don't assume that you're getting married untill you're engaged.

pretty simple...no matter how much you think your in love....infact...

assume that you're NOT getting married untill you're engaged.

some advice that i learned from a speaker at ATF: Treat your girlfriend in such a way that if she were to get married to someone else, her husband would thank you for being such a gentelman.

wow thats wayyyyy different than the world's perspective

Now for the spiritual part lol

Song of Solomon 2:8-10, 13 NIV

Listen! My beloved!
Look! Here he comes,
leaping across the mountains,
bounding over the hills. My beloved is like a gazelle or a young stag.
Look! There he stands behind our wall,
gazing through the windows,
peering through the lattice. My beloved spoke and said to me,
"Arise, my darling,
my beautiful one, come with me. The fig tree forms its early fruit;
the blossoming vines spread their fragrance.
Arise, come, my darling;
my beautiful one, come with me."

This will be a bit shorter...but the thing I learned here is that we should be ready...

The woman here is quoting what the man said to her. The woman is ready to leave with the man when he says "Come to me"

we should be the same way with God...are we ready for the day when God says "Come with me my beloved"...the rapture isn't really something i think about on a daily basis...and it should be.


well that's it for tonight....g'night
