Engagement Ring


How wise the first man who gave his betrothed a ring! How her heart needs this constant, ever available, concrete reminder that he loves her and has chosen her above all other maidens to be his own. How her heart needs the reminder that this is reality, and not something which will disappear tomorrow!

And consider how wise that the man not have a ring- as a constant reminder to him that his betrothed is not yet his wife. She is promised, but not given. He must then continue to take appropriate steps to guard her and bring her into his home honorably in the eyes of God.
