Every relationship has its challenges.  There will be things that each do not agree with and there will be times when arguments occur.  One thing for certain and two things for sure, a man will NEVER put his hands on a woman or degrade her IF he really loves her. 

If you love your woman, check your Love Gauge to ensure that at all costs she is treated as the queen that you first realized she was even before the “I Do”.  Domestic abuse is high.  It accounts for many marriages ending.  Domestic abuse includes physical, verbal and mental abuse.  Women were created by God to be help meets.  We are delicate roses.

Song of Solomon says alot about love and its so “appropo” that I blog this today….

Why mates shouldn’t fight with your mouth (verbal abuse)       

“Let him kiss me with the kisses of his mouth: for thy love is better than wine” (SS 1:2). No Moscato, Remy VSOP or Ciroc can taste as good as the kisses from your love. When you kiss your love, it should be enough to satify your soul.   “Draw me, we will run after thee: the king hath brought me into his chambers: we will be glad and rejoice in thee, we will remember thy love more than wine: the upright love thee”  (v.4). When your lover draws you with kisses, all is well 😉 But be careful, you can be kissed by another to be identified marked for the enemy as well…) Check your Love Gauge….

Why mates shouldn’t fight with words (mental abuse)

Words have power.  Once you say something out of your mouth, you cannot reverse it.  There arent enough “I’m sorry” “I didnt mean it” “I was just mad” that can cover what you say to your mate.  Lovers should only speak sweet things to each other.  When you cannot think of anything to say, remember what momma said “DONT SAY NOTHING”…. If you find it hard to find something sweet to say, check your Love Gauge or take notes from SS 2:10-16 

My beloved spake, and said unto me, Rise up, my love, my fair one, and come away… Arise, my love, my fair one, and come away… in the secret places of the stairs, let me see thy countenance, let me hear thy voice; for sweet is thy voice, and thy countenance is comely… for our vines have tender grapes. My beloved is mine, and I am his: he feedeth among the lilies.

Why mates shouldn’t fight with hands (physical abuse)

“My beloved put in his hand by the hole of the door, and my bowels were moved for him.  I rose up to open to my beloved; and my hands dropped with myrrh, and my fingers with sweet smelling myrrh, upon the handles of the lock.”  SS 5:4-5 <—- thats hot!!!

The only time lovers should have physical contact with one another is when there is no hurting, bruising or killing involved.  SS above is the perfect example of how hands should be properly used with lovers 😉  A real man knows not to hit a woman cause he knows he could really hurt her. And vice versa, a woman knows when she has a real man….(pause.. think on it, got it).  If you think that you are going to get physical, leave the situation. 

I’m praying for those who may be in any of these forms of abuse.  Check your Love Gauge, SS is about the love of God in our lives.  There is help for you… Check out an upcoming seminar hosted by Jericho City of Praise Singles ministry 2/26/11. Im quite sure they wouldn’t mind if married folk came out…  See flyer: http://bit.ly/eVVM9C
