OUR LOVING AND BEAUTIFUL ROSE

“I AM the rose of Sharon, and the lily of the valleys.”

Song of Solomon 2:1 KJV

Jesus, our loving and beautiful Rose not only has a pleasant scent, He is beautiful.  I love roses and a red rose is my favorite rose because it reminds me of the unconditional love Jesus has for us when He shed His precious blood for us on the cross so we can be saved.  Indeed, He is a beautiful and loving Saviour.

What an unconditional love for us flowed from the heart of Jesus when He walked that long lonely road to Calvary and there allowed them to crucify Him for our sins.  Our family and our friends love us but nobody loves us like Jesus and our Heavenly Father love us and no one ever will.  O how I love Jesus!

All hail, King Jesus!  Worthy is the Lamb of God!  One glorious day every knee will bow and every tongue confess that Jesus is Lord.  Jesus will finally get the praise and honor that He so richly deserves.  If ever someone deserves to be praised and honored, it is Jesus!

There have been times I have smelled something sweet in my home and I didn’t have any flowers in the house when I smelled the fragrance.  It was the fragrance of Jesus I smelled in my home.  It was a reminder to me of the beauty and fragrance of Jesus, our loving and beautiful Rose and His unconditional love.

Heavenly Father, thank You for loving us so much that You gave Your beloved Son to die on the cross so we can be saved.  Jesus, You are so precious to me.  I love You with all my heart.  How I long for the day when I will see You face to face.  Thank You for loving me.  In Jesus’ Name, I pray.  Amen.
