Song Of Solomon 2:1-2

It's interesting to see the relationship between this young man and woman. The confidence of the young woman stands out to me in this passage. She knows that she is the rose of Sharon and the lilly of the valley in the eyes of the young man. He has treated her in such a way that she has confidence in her beauty and the fact that she is special.

Husbands would do well to learn this lesson. Praise your mate with such sincerity that she will know how beautiful she really is. It's great to know how wonderful your mate is, but communicate your feelings so that they will know how you feel.
