Song os Solomon 4

Song of Solomon 4:7 NIV

"You are altogether beautiful, my darling;
there is no flaw in you."

ok so first things first, is this how God views us...we should live our lives in such a way that He feels this way about us


now for the awkward stuff

I didn't have much to say about Song of Solomon 4 because it is one of the more...sensual chaperts in this book...

I kind of didnt want to share anything because i was afraid it might be awkward...but then i thought "Hey, if two people can have sex in the middle of a highschool dance, then I can definately blog about what the Bible says about sex."

so here's the thing...read chapter 4 of Song of Solomon for yourself....pretty much the man talks about the woman in a very poetic way. at the end he starts to compare her to a garden.

Song of Solomon 4:12 NIV

"You are a garden locked up, my sister, my bride;
you are a spring enclosed, a sealed fountain."

the woman responds:

Song of Solomon 4:16 NIV

"Awake, north wind,
and come, south wind!
Blow on my garden,
that its fragrance may spread everywhere.
Let my beloved come into his garden
and taste its choice fruits."

The man says that she is a garden 'locked up' which means she doesnt let everyone in. But the woman chooses to let the man "enter the garden"

A few things to note here

1. The man never asked for sex.
The man was just admiring his bride's beauty when SHE made the invitation. Why is this important? It's important because it shows that sex wasn't what was most important to the man. This couple is a married couple (the woman reminisced about their wedding in the last chapter.) but the man knows that sex is still a mutual descision.

2. The sex refrenced here is intimate not dirty
This couple isnt going to have sex in the middle of a highschool dance...this couple treats sex as if it is something personal and something special...they dont have sex to feed their flesh...

anyways...this blog was real and up front...

thanks again for reading....g'night
