Cheap Wine and Priceless Love

Cheap Wine and Priceless Love…

Song of Solomon 1:2 says, “Ki tovim dodecha mi’yayin.” “For your love is better than wine.” What’s the difference between love and wine? Wine is bought and can be expensive, but you can’t buy love, it’s free. The bride’s saying, “nothing I could buy is even worthy to be compared with your love.”

As Jesus’s bride, we’re to have the same heart. Too often, we run after things we can touch, taste, smell, and purchase. But it’s not even worthy of being compared to God’s love. The love of God is always free. There’s nothing we can do to earn it. But don’t make the mistake of thinking it’s cheap.

The love of God is free not because it’s worthless but because it’s priceless. All the worldly treasures we labor after mean nothing, compared to the love of God. The love of God is free because it’s beyond price. His loving kindness is better than life.

So, set your heart on daily receiving the treasures of heaven; the riches of His love that the world can’t contain. Then you, as His bride, can say, “Your love is better than wine.”

Because your love is better than life, my lips will glorify you. Psalm 63:3

Today rejoice in the love of your Beloved. And rejoice in how that love is better than everything else in this world.

Walk daily with God at your side!

Love always,

Ed
