One of the powerful relationship principles I will share this weekend will be............
IF YOU THINK SOMETHING GOOD, SAY IT.
To think something good and not say it is similar to buying a present, wrapping it, and not giving it. We are robbing them of the blessing of receiving the good thought.
We’ll see Solomon do this over and over again in scripture with the Shulamite woman. When he thinks something good, he gives life to it by saying it. We’ll start in Chapter 7.
If you look at the end of Chapter 6, the very last verse, we get an idea from the verse that the Shulamite woman was dancing for him. And I think that’s a good thing. So, she’s dancing and then he’s thinking some good thoughts and he’s going to tell her.
Now, if you remember, this is the third string of compliments that he gives to his beloved. The first two times, he started at the head and he worked his way down. But now, he’s an old pro. He’s gonna get creative. He’s gonna start at the feet and work his way up. So watch him do so......
How beautiful your sandaled feet, O prince's daughter! Your graceful legs are like jewels, the work of a craftsman's hands. Your navel is a rounded goblet that never lacks blended wine. Your waist is a mound of
wheat encircled by lilies. Your breasts are like two fawns, twins of a gazelle. Songs 7:1-3
What do you need to say to your spouse today? What compliments have you been holding back on? Before the day is over say it and watch how things change in your house!!!! ;-)
