Yesterday was my birthday and my lovely wife Sharon gave me a card with this scripture on it: This is my beloved, and this is my friend. Song of Solomon 5:16
How does this scripture speak to you?
I officiated at a wedding yesterday and I used that scripture at the start of the wedding. In marriage counseling it seems that married couples in conflict forget that they are friends. True, Godly friendship over comes all, the love of Jesus overcomes everything. The wedding yesterday was so wonderful, it was at the Historic Old Town Gazebo in Albuquerque, there were many onlookers, I went up too many of them to share the love of Jesus, one lady in particular stole my heart, she was sitting on a park bench and resting her arms on her walker. She had such a Godly smile as she looked at all the wedding presentations, I walked up to her and greeted her, she said she did not speak English, but she smiled really BIG when I told her I am just here to tell you that Jesus loves you so and you have such a smile of Jesus! Her smile grew even bigger, she just glowed with the joy of the Lord! She did understand, the love of Jesus is understood by all, it melts the heart of all, if shown properly!
For God’s Glory Alone, in the Love of Jesus, Amen!
