"And Be Thou Ravished Always With Her Love"

Let thy fountain be blessed: and rejoice with the wife of thy youth. Let her be as the loving hind and pleasant roe; let her breasts satisfy thee at all times;and be thou ravished always with her love. (Proverbs 5:18-19)

Webster says Ravish is to overwhelm with emotion; give pleasure to or be pleasing to. The thesaurus gives words like enchant, enrapture, enthral, transport, delight, and please as alternates for the word ravish. And the Bible says we are to "be ravished with her love." Genesis 2:24 says, "Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh." Webster defines the word cleave as to adhere, cling, or stick fast.
Let her know today how her beauty, and love draws you to her, see her love today as you have not seen it before. Be ravished by it. Make sure she knows that she is #1, and that there is nothing that could separate you. If by chance her love has not been all that ravishing of late, cleave to her, show her the love of Christ, and let her know that she"satisfies thee at all times." There is a good chance that your Christ like love could bring out her ravishing love. The wife of your youth has a love, and beauty unlike any you will ever know. She is yours, love and cherish her always, and make sure she knows it.
