Holy Marriage-Holy Sexual Relations

The song of Solomon goes into great detail about sexual relations in marriage. It is blessed by God and is meant to be greatly enjoyed. It is an intimate time for a husband and wife to be with each other away from all of life's cares. Heb.13:4 Let marriage be held in honor among all, and let the marriage bed be undefiled, for God will judge the sexually immoral and adulterous. Gen.2:24 Therefore a man shall leave his father and his mother and hold fast to his wife, and they shall become one flesh.
God has ordained marriage as holy between one man and one woman. I just heard a wonderful sermon from my pastor on Song of Solomon. He told us there is a connection between the marriage of man and woman and Christ and His bride, the church. We are to have exclusive, humble and continual devotion for both our relationship with our spouse and Christ.
Lord, I pray that we will never take our marriage or our relationship with You for granted. May we always be mindful that You have given us such sweet gifts. Amen
