Love and War

I shared before that I had started reading "The Art of War". I started and then I stopped; it is a slow read...the first 13 chapters are the text but then it goes on the history of the text and then on to the text with commentary. I stopped reading it. The book of the bible that I am reading now is the Song of Solomon. When I got the impression that I needed to read it (Song of Solomon) I thought it was odd given all that is going on but I obeyed. I then started feeling like I really needed to start back reading "The Art of War". I thought to myself what a peculiar combination but then I thought not really and I also reflected on the phrase "All is fair in love and war." I will continue to seek God about what he is saying but I know part of what he is saying is that he loves his bride and he longs to be with us, even in times of war. So fret not.

Romans 8:37-39
Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us.
For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come,
Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
