"I am the Rose of Sharon..."

Song of Solomon 2

Beloved)

1 I am a Rose of Sharon,
a lily of the valleys.
Lover)
2 Like a lily among thorns
is my darling among the maidens.
Beloved)
3 Like an apple tree among the trees of the forest
is my lover among the young men.
I delight to sit in his shade,
and his fruit is sweet to my taste.
4 He has taken me to the banquet hall,
and his banner over me is love.

5 Strengthen me with raisins,
refresh me with apples,
for I am faint with love.

6 His left arm is under my head,
and his right arm embraces me.

7 Daughters of Jerusalem, I charge you
by the gazelles and by the does of the field:
Do not arouse or awaken love
until it so desires.

8 Listen! My lover!
Look! Here he comes,
leaping across the mountains,
bounding over the hills.

9 My lover is like a gazelle or a young stag.
Look! There he stands behind our wall,
gazing through the windows,
peering through the lattice.

10 My lover spoke and said to me,
"Arise, my darling,
my beautiful one, and come with me.

11 See! The winter is past;
the rains are over and gone.

12 Flowers appear on the earth;
the season of singing has come,
the cooing of doves
is heard in our land.

13 The fig tree forms its early fruit;
the blossoming vines spread their fragrance.
Arise, come, my darling;
my beautiful one, come with me."

Lover)
14 My dove in the clefts of the rock,
in the hiding places on the mountainside,
show me your face,
let me hear your voice;
for your voice is sweet,
and your face is lovely.
15 Catch for us the foxes,
the little foxes
that ruin the vineyards,
our vineyards that are in bloom.

Beloved)
16 My lover is mine and I am his;
he browses among the lilies.
17 Until the day breaks
and the shadows flee,
turn, my lover,
and be like a gazelle
or like a young stag
on the rugged hills. [c]


God's love reaches all- growing means thinking outside the box... love one another

Greetings all,
Did you know, there is actually said to be, a rose bush, that blooms twice yearly in Europe, planted by Christ Himself, while on a voyage with his uncle Joseph of Aramithea, who was a tin dealer know to have mines in Europe, of a strain, which is from the Judean area? It had once been tried to be destroyed, yet still grows, from the burnt stub, to this day. Ask some English folk about the legendary Isle of Avalon too...And Mary's waddle hut, or chapel..

No King but CHRIST JESUS!!!
