Song of Songs

Wow. Its only my second time writing and I'm already writing about this. Love. As Davey Jones says, A dreadful bond." But according to Christian from Moulin Rouge, "Love is a many- splendored thing, Love lifts us up where we belong, all you need is Love!"And really, if the 'song of [all] songs' is all about Love, it must be pretty important. God is Love; Love is the most beautiful, powerful force in the universe!But Satan found a loophole. He discovered that love can be twisted. Just as an Orc is the dark side of on Elf, (LOTR right there), the most beautiful creature, Love can be corrupted also. It's called lust. It, along with pride, is one of the most powerful tools of the devil. You could seperate yourself from all humanity and still struggle with it. I dont know about girls, but I know every guy in the world has a problem with it. And it's not helped by the fact that it's so easy to see things these days! We've got porn, low-cut shirts, even everday TV shows portray pre-marriage sex, and skimpy clothes as a good thing!
Disney Channel even, you see them checking out girls as they walk past! We wern't made for that! "A man will be united with his wife." (Genesis 2:24a) This unification comes through sex! Notice it doesn't say girlfriend, or even fiance, and definitely not 2nd, 5th, 12th, and 17th girlfriends! It actually goes on to say "and they will becomeone flesh." Flesh isn't meant to be separated, and niether are man and wife! Think about it this way: would you want some guy/girl lusting after, or even having sex with your future wife or husband??
