Many waters cannot quench love

Many waters cannot quench love; rivers cannot wash it away. If one were to give all the wealth of his house for love, it would be utterly scorned. (Song of Solomon 8:7 NIV)

That means love is eternal and immoveable and indestructible. A massive tsunami or an enormous hurricane-force wind can’t destroy it or wash it off the face of the earth. You can’t buy it for any amount of money. You can't steal it or bribe it away from the heart.

Think about it. This is true. Asi es.

That makes love the most real, most powerful force imaginable. How, then, could fear or hatred or anger--or anything else you could come up against--overcome a heart full of love?
