Who do you love?
Are they in you?
If so, then in what sense is the one you love in you?
Clearly, we don’t mean that the one you love, let say your wife. Your wife who is both body and soul is in the husband. Clearly her physical body is not in his physical body, therefore we must be talking about the other part of us that is one with us, our soul. The immaterial part of us.
She is in his soul. Her in him. Who she is, how she is related to him and his feelings of love to her are in his soul. In him. She is in him.
Since the essence and nature of harmonious and a more complete oneness, she must be in him and him in her (soul).
She is in him.
She is in his soul. The mind is a faculty of the soul. 1 In his mind 2 Upon his heart.
In his mind.
1 She is in his mind. She is dwelling there. Who she is, is in his mind. What she is like is in his mind. How beautiful she looks is in his mind. How she excelled above all other queens. (Wow! I could go on endlessly throughout the whole love poem just to write what was in his mind about her by the time she says, “Set me as a seal upon your heart and arm…” 8:6)
The mind is immaterial and the brain is material. You brain is not your mind but the thoughts in your brain are one with your mind so that the mind communicates to the brain knowledge.
In the mind thought of her are not alone but come with a feeling of love. Thoughts of her love to him and his love to her are not just stored info like a robot. It is knowledge of her with feeling being sensed. Not as computer stores information but rather the information in the mind is not just knowledge in his head but when she is on his mind there is also feelings of love coming from his heart to her (or rather ideas of her that he is thinking upon). He thinks of her and feels love to her at the same time and she isn’t even in his presence. In this example of her being in his mind she is absent from the picture and is not present. Ideas and memories of her are in his mind. And she is upon his heart when love is felt to her.
2 On his heart. She is not only in his mind but on his heart
The mind is a faculty of the soul. Its purpose is to store information among other things. She was always in his mind but was she always upon his heart as someone he could trust to be there doing her part all the time. What did she know of love and marriage at the beginning? What did she know as a fully mature woman late in the marriage? She gained experiential knowledge of the love of God through his son, the king of peace, Solomon, by being married to him for years!
The Bible, Solomon’s song of songs is profitable for teaching you what love, and oneness is. Love is not just a feeling as the mind is not just thought, but rather the two function as one or at least should function as one. Love being the primary principle guiding the heart. Consent to Being in General. Love to God. This love is done by every faculty of the soul. Each one having its role and acting as one.
One faculty that has information, is where memories are and where the thinking happens. She is in him mind.
She is in him. 1 By being in his mind 2 by being upon his heart
The heart is the faculty of the soul that senses feeling and emotions. The heart is the seat of our affections. Out of the heart comes evil as well. The heart is the seat of our motives and desires. The seat of our will. Since love dwelt in both of them to its fullest, she was not her own. She gave herself to him freely and her will and his were one in the same flame of love to God and others.
She was proof that she belonged to and fully owned him. Let me enjoy the priceless feeling of being fully owned by him!
I fully own him and has experienced what it felt like to be his beloved. He has freely given all of himself to me time and time again. I own him as as the king fully owns the documents, he puts his seal on. “Set me as a seal upon your heart.”
Use of information.
How clear are those memories? Are they right memories, I mean are you both on the same page as to where you are in the marriage, or where you are going? How could you move forward together? How could you catch the foxes, overcome the floods, keep the fire of love burning, face death and life for YHWH together?
Heart to heart questions intended to bring about a stricter union of hearts.
What do I know about my spouse?
Am I missing any information about him that is crucial to the harmony of the relationship?
Would gaining that information help move the relationship forward? Yes, if love is there as well. When the information is gained about the beloved then a more harmonious union is the result. Both sharing the same mind about things is crucial to the harmony and happiness of the relationship.
Most important is both sharing the same mind as to the perfections of God, who Jesus is, what he did, the way of sanctification (becoming more like Jesus), role in the marriage and what love is etc. Do you and your spouse have in your minds these things?
Love as it has God for its primary Object of affection is the souls relish of the excellency of the Supreme Being inclining the heart to choose God as it’s chief good.
She is ready for him to pour out love in all its height, depth, scope and degrees. She is ready. Let me experience what full ownership by God feels like. Set me as a seal displaying that you are mine.
How would it be full ownership
Whoever puts the seal on owns the unchangeable documents
He puts her as a seal upon himself. Stamp me as owning your heart and show me what being fully owned by you feels like as you pour out your love to me.
It’s like he has been going too fast and now she is ready to fully receive his love.
Do not arouse or awaken love until she desires.
I am always so so happy to be writing my thoughts but when the feeling starts to fade the thoughts don’t taste as delightful. Therefore, I end this post, praying for you to find your greatest joy and happiness in pleasing God. May he be your all in all. I pray the Lord Jesus Christ to pour out His love to you in your mind and heart to all its height, depths, lengths, width and infinte degree’s as you think of Him paying the penalty for you sins on the cross, proving His matchless love to you even before you were born.
Oh yeah, the point of this post was to come up with questions you could ask your spouse to better get to know them so that the two of you could get closer faster if you knew each other better.
What was important to learn about your spouse that helped move you forward?
