By Francis Frangipane
We
simply must have more of Jesus. In the face of increasing wickedness in
the world, human ideas have fallen short. Those who understand the hour
are seeking God. Possessing more of Christ Himself is our only strategy
and hope.
Yet, to seek God is to embark on a journey
that will include obstacles and spiritual enemies along the way. We must
not give ourselves reasons or excuses to fail.
As a
pattern, therefore, we will look at the Song of Solomon 3:1-4. Here we
find a bride and bridegroom who both are intolerant of the distance
between them. The bride in the passage symbolizes the church in her
deepest longings for Jesus; the bridegroom represents the Lord.
