I am the rose of Sharon Song of Solomon 2 verse one whatever there may be of Beauty in the material world Jesus Christ possesses all that in the spiritual World in a ten-fold degree amongst flowers the rose is deemed the sweetest but Jesus is infinitely More Beautiful In The Garden of the Soul than the rose can be in The Gardens of Earth he takes the first place as the fairest among 10,000 he is the Sun and all others are the stars the heavens and the day are dark in comparison with him for the king in his Beauty transcends all I am the rose of Sharon this was the best and rarest of roses Jesus is not the rose alone he is the rose of Sharon just as he calls his righteousness gold and then adds the gold of offer the best of the best he is positively lovely and superlatively the loveliest there is Variety in his charms the rose is delightful to the eye and its scent is pleasant and refreshing so each of the senses of the Soul whether it be the taste or feeling the hearing the sight or the spiritual smell finds appropriate gratification in Jesus even the recollection of his love is sweet take the rose of Sharon and Pull It Leaf from leaf and lay by the leaves in the jar of memory and you shall find each Leaf fragrant long afterwards filling the house with perfume Christ satisfies the highest Taste of the most educated Spirit to the very full the greatest amateur in perfumes is quite satisfied with the rose and when the soul has arrived at her highest pitch of true taste she shall still be content with Christ she shall be the better able to appreciate him Heaven itself possesses nothing which excels the rose of Sharon what emblem can fully set forth his Beauty human speech and earthborn things fail to tell of him Earth's choices charms commingled and feebly picture his abounding preciousness blessed rose bloom in my heart forever subscribe for more devotionals and sermons from Spurgeon click an option on the screen now
