Song 4:1 (NIV)
Lover
How beautiful you are, my darling!
Oh, how beautiful!
Your eyes behind your veil are doves.
Your hair is like a flock of goats
descending from Mount Gilead.
For some reason, Christy did not respond favorably to this recitation of the Word of God. I really did mean well.
As an aside, I think a great punishment for a Jr. High boy would be for him to have to read aloud the Song of Songs in the presence of his family. Maybe even invite over a few friends from school.
Here is today’s Bible reading: Song of Solomon 1:1-4:16; 2 Corinthians 8:16-24; Psalm 50:1-23; Proverbs 22:22-23.

LOL, I was thinking how I would react if Alan said these things to me. Maybe I’m not as old as I thought… it would just sound weird. 🙂 Now you guys should make up your own!!!
