A Beautiful Verse from the Bible




Women of Jerusalem, I am dark but beautiful,
Dark as the desert tents of kedar,
But beautiful as the curtains in Solomon's palace
Don't look down on me because of my colour, 
Because the sun has tanned me.
My brothers were angry with me 
And made me work in the vineyard,
I had no time to care for myself



My beloved is mine 
And I am his
He feeds his flock among the lilies

His mouth is sweetness
He is absolutely desirable
This is my love,
And this is my friend,
Young women of Jerusalem
~ The Shulamite

Close your heart to every love but mine;
Hold no one in your arms but me.
Love is as powerful as death;
Passion is as strong as death itself.
It burns into flame and burns like a raging fire.
Water can not put it out,
No flood can drown it.
But if anyone tried to buy love with wealth,
Contempt is all they will get.
~The Shepherd


Would you consider your union as a sign of God's goodness
And beauty working in your life?

Songs of  Solomon reminds us that both marriage 
And the physical union that follows originates in God;
We should always consider their authentic love as evidence
Of his grace working itself out in the world.

It poetically presents a broad range of events and feelings 
In the days leading to and during marriage
Offering encouragement towards an enduring love
Amid the petty jealousness and fears 
Sure to threaten the strongest of relationships!



We are God's Perfect Creation
Beautiful of all Worlds

"A mother, living well in her God-ordained role,  is of great beauty and inestimable value  to the future of history of any generation." -Sally Clarkson  Give A woman Incomplete.... A good woman is proud of herself. She respects herself and others. She is aware of who she is. She neither seeks definition from the person she is with, Nor does she expect them to read her mind. She is quite capable of articulating her needs. A good woman is hopeful. She is strong enough to make all her dreams come true She knows love, therefore she gives love. She recognizes that her love has great value And must be reciprocated. If her love is taken for granted,  it soon disappears. Give A woman Incomplete.... A good woman has a dash of inspiration,  A dabble of endurance.  She knows that she will, at times, Have to inspire others to reach the potential God gave them. A good woman knows her past, Understands her pre...

The Battle for Your Soul

Image
We all know what is a testimony without a test You are a believer, a lover of God and a soul feeder All of a sudden, things go haywire!!! Things get so bad and everything around you falls apart Job was a very rich, prudent and obedient man to God He could have resorted to other ways of life being powerful But he made sure he and his household served God  So when tribulations come What do we do? Others would pratically say God is no longer with him But in that very moment, all you have got left is FAITH If God took away all you had Would you continue loving God like the first day To be chosen , truth be told, you need to love God hard! If there is going to be a turn around for you Then certainly things can't remain the same! One of the best ways the Bible decribes a Christain Is that of a soldier Why is it so? That God looks at us that way! This is because the Christian life is filled with bread and butter But it is also filled ...
