{“Many waters cannot quench love, neither can the floods drown it.” A drowning swimmer fights against the water but it keeps coming until at last, exhausted and weak, he sinks down under the waves and dies. We say, so much has happened–one thing after another, so many disappointments. Love has drowned under the waves of disappointment. Our love has its limits, we say. It cannot go on any further. But not the love of Christ. It never dies. All the waves and billows of sin, all the deluge, all the floods of the great waters, the swelling currents, the raging floods of the wrath of God poured over His soul. But those floods did not drown His love.}
this had been something i read online to help me understand... and it makes perfect sense... the book of solomon was not only about the love of man and woman but the love of christ for his people..
