KNOWING AHEAD OF TIME THAT OUR GENERATION would be bankrupt of the knowledge of the lovely arts of romantic love in Marriage, God graciously gave us the Song of Solomon to guide and instruct us.
When you read the Song of Solomon, you see a seemingly endless outpouring of love as the Spouses copiously express their deep love for each other without shame, fear, shyness or timidity. Dearly Beloved, God wants you and your Spouse to walk in their footsteps.
In the entire book, there is no occasion where the spouses presented gifts or any physical token of love to each other, yet you can’t do but feel the fervency of their blazing love. All they use is their VOICES. They verbalize their feelings and affectionate thoughts and what mighty rains of love their pleasant and romantic words bring down on their relationship! Even though you don’t see them, you don’t read that Book and not come away with the conviction that theirs is a lush and evergreen garden of love.
In our anchor scripture, the man expresses his admiration of the quality of his Spouse’s love. He confesses that her love is beautiful and richer in sweetness than Wine! He goes on to admire the perfume on her dress and says that it’s the best of all fragrances! He was so attentive to note the special fragrance of her perfume and felt it was significant to be praised. That’s romantic diligence cum prudence.
Have you ever admired THE LOVE of your husband or wife?
When was the last time you complimented your wife on her dressing? When was the last time you praised her hairdo or cooking?
Madam, when was the last time you admired your husband’s looks? When last did you tell him that he’s handsome? Have you not felt that if you do it will get into his head and he’ll begin to feel proud; and that’s it’s safer to keep silent?
Sir, when last did you open up and tell your wife how crazy you are about her physique, shape, complexion, dentition and her other feminine endowments? From January to December you’re silent about her loveliness and you still think it’s okay?
Spouses, please wake up! Romantic marriages don’t just sprout overnight like mushrooms on a refuse dump. They are cultivated and sustained by consistent watering. And that’s what you see in the Song of Solomon. God gave us that Book to serve as a model for us to follow in our marriages. In it’s few but powerful pages, you see the man admire and praise his lady’s breasts, her eyes, her neck and her thighs in the noblest, purest and most picturesque way he possibly could.
The woman also praises and admires him out loud to his hearing.
Sir, when last did you admire Madam’s lovely lips, rosy cheeks, and tantalizing hips, if at all you have ever done so in the first place?
And Madam when last did you admire your husband’s haircut, moustache or beard? Or you thought he doesn’t enjoy admiration?
Spouses, you don’t need to shop for a voice with which to express your love for one another: you already have one. Please, use it to COMMUNICATE YOUR LOVE for your spouse. And please do it daily and do it profusely and with all sincerity.
When you have love in your heart for your marriage partner, they have no way of knowing about it unless you express it. Your unvoiced admiration is of no value to your Partner unless you speak them out in their hearing.
There’s so much to admire in each other
There’s so much in the life and personality of your Mate to compliment. Don’t be silent about them any more.
Create rains of LOVE in the skies of your “marriage world” by your expressions of praise and admiration of each other and yours will be a romantic Marriage that’s always fresh and evergreen like Eden, the Garden of the Lord.
