Song of Solomon 4:18
Awake, north winds, and come, south
wind! Blow on my garden that its
fragrance may spread everywhere.
If I have developed a fragrant garden of faith in my life,
and have kept it cultivated by a regular and vibrant spiritual life and
relationship with God, the resulting fragrance will be recognizable no matter
what circumstances come my way. The
“north wind” makes me think of cold, of difficulty, blowing across my life, and
the “south wind” reminds me of gentle, warm breezes, of good times. So when I read here of both winds spreading
the garden’s fragrance everywhere, I immediately am reminded of how God wants
to use EVERY circumstance in my life to have an effect on those around me. May my “fragrance” be sweet no matter which
way the wind is blowing.
