I was probably fourteen years old at the time. The moon was shining over the confluence of the Allagash and St John River. Observing the romantic scene before us, my female companion and I were sitting on a log. This was going to be the first time I kissed a girl and I was looking forward to it with much anticipation. Closing my eyes and moving my lips in her direction, I launched the move; however, the calculation of my trajectory was off by an inch and a half, and the passionate advance was placed squarely on her nose.
We both recovered from that embarrassment and my second aim was right on the money. With time and practice, I became quite proficient with the technique and still use it on occasion with my wife of fifty years.
The Bible describes this form of securing a relationship in:
Psalm 2:12
Kiss the Son, lest He be angry,
And you perish in the way,
When His wrath is kindled but a little.
Blessed are all those who put their trust in Him.
We might lose a lot of relationships by misapplication of this subject; however, contact with the Son of God is imperative.
Think about it.
