SCRIPTURE: SONG OF SONGS 3
The beloved was looking for her lover but she could not find him. She went about the city through its streets and square to search . She was not satisfied with information from the watchman because she wanted to personally find him. When she saw her lover, she hold him and brought him to her mother’s house. Solomon, the lover was escorted with 60 warriors all of them wearing the sword. He personally made the carriage from wood in Lebanon. Its post was made of silver and its base of gold. Its seat was upholstered with purple, its interior inlaid by daughters of Jerusalem. Solomon, wearing the crown called the beloved to come out to celebrate their wedding day.
THOUGHTS:
The beloved left the comfort and security of the bed and risked the danger of the street to find her lover. There are times we have also to seek the Lord instead of Him coming to you.
Solomon came to claim his wife and took her home in a triumphant and beautiful wedding procession. The church is also awaiting for the glorious coming of our Lord. As we are still waiting, find delight in Him to experience his love and joy.
