Let him kiss me with the kisses of his mouth… Song of songs 1:2a

And God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light. Genesis 1:3

Both above-mentioned verses use same sentence structure.

Now the earth was formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters. And God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light. Genesis 1:2-3

When the book of Genesis begins, the light filled the earth.

When the book of the Song of songs begins, love fills the heart.

God transformed the formless and empty earth into a garden filled with fruit-trees.

If love has got frozen in our hearts let us tell our Lord: “Lord command in my heart ‘Let there be love!!”’

Let the wilderness be a garden!!

The desert and the parched land will be glad;

    the wilderness will rejoice and blossom.

Like the crocus, it will burst into bloom;

    it will rejoice greatly and shout for joy.

The glory of Lebanon will be given to it,

    the splendor of Carmel and Sharon;

they will see the glory of the LORD,

    the splendor of our God. Isaiah 35:1-2
