“Many waters cannot quench love, Nor can the floods drown it” (Song of Solomon 8:7, NKJV). This verse pictures genuine love as remarkably resilient, unable to be extinguished even by overwhelming circumstance.
Many waters and floods suggest real, significant threats, not minor inconveniences. And still, love described this way holds.
This is worth applying beyond romantic love alone, to any genuine, committed love, for a spouse, a friend, a calling, that’s meant to withstand real pressure rather than dissolve at the first sign of difficulty.
What love in your own life is currently being tested by many waters, and is it proving as resilient as this verse describes?
