The Song of Songs is one of my favorite books in the Bible. More than the fact, that the verses embody every girl's dream of a romantic relationship, the book feels like a love song between me and my God. And Day 6's 1st Reading captures perfectly the joy of knowing that He has come to save me --- because He is here, winter is over.
So I will just leave this here and share with you my #ChristmasFeels passage.
Song of Songs 2:8-14 (or Zephaniah 3:14-18)
8 Hark! my lover — here he comes springing across the mountains, leaping across the hills. 9 My lover is like a gazelle or a young stag. Here he stands behind our wall, gazing through the windows, peering through the lattices. 10 My lover speaks; he says to me, “Arise, my beloved, my dove, my beautiful one, and come! 11 “For see, the winter is past, the rains are over and gone. 12 The flowers appear on the earth, the time of pruning the vines has come, and the song of the dove is heard in our land. 13 The fig tree puts forth its figs, and the vines, in bloom, give forth fragrance. Arise, my beloved, my beautiful one, and come! 14“O my dove in the clefts of the rock, in the secret recesses of the cliff, let me see you, let me hear your voice, for your voice is sweet, and you are lovely.”
