Song of Solomon 3

Song of Solomon 3:1-4 NIV

“All night long on my bed
I looked for the one my heart loves;
I looked for him but did not find him. I will get up now and go about the city,
through its streets and squares;
I will search for the one my heart loves.
So I looked for him but did not find him. The watchmen found me
as they made their rounds in the city.
“Have you seen the one my heart loves?” Scarcely had I passed them
when I found the one my heart loves.
I held him and would not let him go
till I had brought him to my mother’s house,
to the room of the one who conceived me.”

ok so it’s late at night and the woman’s husband isn’t home…so she goes out into the city to find him…pretty simple right…

then how come I cant do the same with my relationship with God…at times when I feel God isnt there…looking for Him should be my first instinct….instead I tend to do exactly what the woman DIDN’T do

I complain or I panic…I sit there and complain…”where is God…I need Him right now”…something along those lines….the point is that i need to work on seeking Him out and not just expecting Him to show up when I need Him.

Song of Solomon 3:9-11 NIV

“King Solomon made for himself the carriage;
he made it of wood from Lebanon. Its posts he made of silver,
its base of gold.
Its seat was upholstered with purple,
its interior inlaid with love.
Daughters of Jerusalem, come out,
and look, you daughters of Zion.
Look on King Solomon wearing a crown,
the crown with which his mother crowned him
on the day of his wedding,
the day his heart rejoiced.”

Weddings are long, expensive, and a very big deal. why? Because they’re worth it.

Weddings should be days of enjoyment

On tv a while ago there was this girl talking about how she got pregnant when she was 14 and her grandma forced her to get married to the guy…and that’s kind of sad…a wedding should be a good memory…not a reminder on how you screwed up your life…

anyways that’s it…goodnight…
