Song 8:5 ¶ “Who is this coming up from the wilderness Leaning on her beloved?” This is one of my favorite verses because it is so relevant to one lives. There are a number things that I believe it is important to notice. First, the wilderness is a reality, and all of us have to

I have been involved in more funerals during the month of December than in several years combined. Christmas just didn’t happen this year.

Song 4:9 Thou hast wounded my heart, my sister, my spouse, thou hast wounded my heart with one of thy eyes, and with one hair of thy neck. I love this particular version of this verse because it speaks of His ruined heart for you and me. Only the one who had laid his head
