Rare but Real

Though weddings are beautiful, they are not nearly as beautiful as a marriage that has stood the test of time and commitment. Real beauty emerges after some heartache. Real beauty is when a couple is still dancing after 25, 35, 45, 65 years together. Real beauty emerges when they are forgiving of each other's sins, and when they don't see ugly, even if they've lived with ugly for years. When a husband and wife are still meeting at their own personal altar, still taking pictures with their heritage, and finally so sad when death separates them in this life.  That's real beauty and we learn all about this kind of beauty in this week's podcast.

When I taught this chapter, I titled it "Where Did Their Love Go?" Their love really didn't go anywhere - it's just that the bride allowed it to fade. Like her, sometimes we allow our love to fade. We drift from the one we love. We sometimes wander, we sometimes forget, and even sometimes don't want to be bothered with the one whom we love the most.

We also learned that one of the best things we can do when this happens is to rehearse all the reasons we loved in the first place. We also learned that our love sometimes fades for the Lord! The One who saved us! But when He saved us, we became His friends. Jesus, what a friend of sinners!

I trust this week's podcast will encourage you.

We all feel lonely at times. Sometimes it can feel especially lonely for women of any age when they wonder when or if they will get married. However, God wants to meet us at every lonely age and stage of our lives. Chesed joined me to discuss what we should do during times of waiting and during times of loneliness.

I'm taking a break from airing the Song of Songs and actually it's a good time because we've reached the halfway point of the book. This week, I was joined on the podcast by my daughter-in-law, Maureen, and we talked about all things family! We talked about what it's like in the middle years of raising a family with one getting ready to graduate from high school and the effect that has on parents and siblings. And in the middle of it, we talked about prioritizing time with the Lord and time with your husband. Our conversation was so fun and I hope it will be an encouragement to you.

Great godly men and women are both rare finds. Yet God shares the words of the Shulamite: "Like an apple tree among the trees of the forest, so is my beloved among the young men." 

And really, this is the mirror of Proverbs 31:10, "An excellent wife, who can find?"

In our world today, it can seem there's a shortage of both. However, in every generation, God raises up great godly young men and women. This week's podcast, covers chapter 2 of the Song. I trust it will be of encouragement to you.
