“15 Catch the foxes for us, the little foxes that spoil the vineyards, for our vineyards are in blossom.” – Song of Solomon 2:15

The future bride in this relationship is looking at their current and future life together and she has some concerns.
The word fox there is imagery of something that would come in and cause hurt, wrong, fear, and if unchecked, ruin in their bidding relationship.

She is challenging him to examine their relationship and see problems when they are small and to reject passivity to address them head-on. This way the small foxes don’t turn into big foxes.

In your relationship today, are there any foxes you need to address? Maybe they are small, but they can turn into big things. Address them head-on in a spirit of love today with your partner, having the goal of reconciliation, not just to get an apology. Then be on the lookout, ready to spot conflicts before they start so you can catch foxes like Solomon.
