Psalm 50; Song of Solomon 1-4

Jesus is our bridegroom. Solomon’s Song was always confusing to me until someone told me to read it picturing Jesus as the lover and me as the one he loves. When I do that the words don’t only make sense, they thrill me!

I am loved. Really, totally, unashamedly loved by Jesus. He loves me in an intimate, personal way. And he loves me very publicly. 

His love sees the best in me. He just can’t get enough of me.

As we read the Song of Solomon together, let’s allow God to express his love for us. And let’s be challenged to return his love. It’s a love that will make us want to live up to it’s view of us. And it’s a love that will invite us to rest in it’s sweetness.

Jesus is our bridegroom. And we are loved.
