"Thou art beautiful...." Song of Solomon 6:4
The praises of Solomon for the beauty and virtue of his beloved, are significant and indicative of the love and God has for His people. The Lord beautifies the believers and makes them pleasing in His sight. In the natural and left to ourselves, we are marred by sin, shame and corruption - definitely not a 'pretty sight'! His grace and love however, cleanses us, restores us and makes us beautiful and acceptable in His presence. Jesus purifies us and imputes His righteousness and holiness upon us, to make us the church, the holy bride He is coming to present to Himself, a bride without spot, wrinkle or any such thing.
