Song of Solomon 3-8 -- Marriage Tips

Solomon came to claim his bride on the wedding day and she discovered she’s marrying the king my commentary said!  It also listed important marriage wisdom:

“Love is a delicate thing, easily misunderstood and quickly hurt …
There’s a price to pay in marriage if we want to mature in our affection …
Love needs to be nourished with kind words and actions …
Over the years, our bodies change and we get old, but the husband and wife who grow in their appreciation and evaluation of each other will never cultivate a critical attitude …
Young in heart is the secret of a long and happy marriage…
One of the important elements in a marriage is getting to know each other so well that we can read each other’s minds and anticipate actions and words …
Marriage ought to be like a garden.  This takes work, but it’s worth it…
Sexual attraction in marriage must be a mutual experience, and the husband and wife must work at making themselves desirable
Their love brought them together, and their love would keep them together …
Where there is love, the husband and wife want to be together and share their ideas and feelings.  Yes, there’s a place for other companions, but nobody must replace the mate God gives to us.”

Father, I pray that I will someday be allowed to experience this in Your timing and in Your will.

Your Brother In Christ,
Gary Ford
