You
Are Beautiful,
My
Darling,
Beautiful
Beyond Words.
Scripture
Song
of Solomon 4
1
You are beautiful, my darling,
beautiful
beyond words.
Your eyes are like doves
behind
your veil.
Your hair falls in waves, ...
7 You are
altogether beautiful, my darling,
beautiful
in every way.
9
You have captured my heart,
my treasure,
my bride.
You hold it hostage with one glance of your
eyes,
with a single jewel of your
necklace.
10 Your
love delights me,
my treasure, my
bride.
Your love is better than wine,
your
perfume more fragrant than spices.
11 Your
lips are as sweet as nectar, my bride.
Honey
and milk are under your tongue.
Your clothes are scented
like
the cedars of Lebanon.
12 You are
my private garden, my treasure, my bride,
a
secluded spring, a hidden fountain.
13 Your
thighs shelter a paradise of pomegranates
with
rare spices—
henna with nard,
14 nard
and saffron,
fragrant calamus and
cinnamon,
with all the trees of frankincense, myrrh, and
aloes,
and every other lovely spice.
15 You are a
garden fountain,
a well of fresh
water
streaming down from Lebanon’s
mountains.
Observation
Song
of Solomon, it wasn't me making that up in case you were wondering!
It comes straight out of the Word of God.
And
my wife Kathy is all that Solomon says about his lover and then some!
Here
is my personalized version of part of Solomon 4:
Kathy
is beautiful, my darling, beautiful beyond words. Her eyes are like
doves.
Kathy
is all together beautiful. She is beautiful in every way. She has
captured my heart (over 50 years ago). She is my treasure, my bride.
She still holds me hostage with one glance of her eyes.
Will
she read this? I don't know. I hope she does.
Come
on guys, brag on your wife -
Application
I
will continue to enjoy the wife of my youth!
How
about you?
Prayer
Heavenly
Father, thank You for giving me such a great wife. I am blessed. She
is as close to being a Proverbs 31 woman as any woman could ever get.
Help her to be all that You want her to be. Thank You for giving her
such spiritual discernment and faith. She encourages me every day.
Continue to help her as she serves You, especially with the women in
our church and with our children and our grandchildren. Give her
wisdom and strength and good health.
