[:en]SCRIPTURE: SONG OF SONGS 7
“How beautiful you are and how pleasing, O love, with your delights! (Song of Songs 7:6)
“I belong to my lover, and his desire is for me” (Song of Songs 7:10)
The lover expressed his love by describing her beauty. He admired her whole body – legs, navel, waist, breasts, neck, eyes, nose, head, hair, statue and mouth. The beloved reciprocated by inviting him to come and spend time with her. They will go to the countryside to spend the night together in the villages. They will go to the vineyards to enjoy the fruits and smell the fragrance (v. 11-12).
Husband and wife need to express their love to each other. They should share their joys and sorrows together. Similarly, Jesus had shown His love by sharing His life for us. We should respond with an affectionate heart and willing mind in our relationship with HIm.[:]
