Pin It Now!
Flowers appear on the earth; the season of singing has come, the cooing of doves is heard in our land. Song of Solomon 2:12
Happy May everyone! Thought it will be a good idea to be meditating Spring related verses from the Bible this month and hence the series May Flowers of Blessings!
As you all know the book of Song of Solomon is a set of love letters between the Beloved (the church) and the Lover (our Savior). Sometimes the terms seem to be used other way round also. But we get the point the relationship between the church (us) and Christ is that of a bride and groom in love with one another, strong and intimate.
When you are a bride-to-be those are special times - have you noticed? Everything looks beautiful, makes you smile, makes you want to dance, fly and a very light hearted, merry feeling. The reason is you are indulged constantly in thoughts of your fiance the groom! You are counting days to the big day, and forget the parental home and bliss dreaming in thoughts of your husband and the home you are going to make! We beautify our self by going to spas and what not? Am I right?
That is exactly the same kind of emotions that is expected of the Church which is soon to be "married" to the Lord Jesus Christ. Let us pause there for the day and ask our self if we feel the same way? Are you constantly indulged in thoughts of Him? Are we counting down days to the Big day? Are we ready? Are we looking our best?
If not, let us start working on it as the Wedding of the Lamb is near. Hear the wedding bells?!
