Theme: God's Love
“Thou art beautiful, O my love, sweet and comely as Jerusalem terrible as an army set in array.”
Reflection for Today
The Church sets before us Song of Solomon 6:3: “Thou art beautiful, O my love, sweet and comely as Jerusalem terrible as an army set in array.”
Song of Solomon is part of the long story of salvation. Catholics receive it as inspired Scripture, a word that prepares the heart for Christ and still nourishes the Church. Read in Catholic faith, this is not a decorative sentence for social media. It is a living word meant to convert, console, and send us back into ordinary life with a quieter heart.
If nothing else remains from this page, let one phrase of Song of Solomon 6:3 remain. If the verse consoles you, do not rush past the comfort. Gratitude is also a form of obedience.
Prayer
Father of mercies, I bring You this day and this verse from Song of Solomon 6:3. As I listen to “Thou art beautiful, O my love, sweet and comely as Jerusalem terrible as an army set…,” heal what is anxious in me, correct what is proud, and strengthen what is willing to love. Amen.
