Song of Solomon 3 - 5
Galatians 6

Song of Solomon 4:15 - "You are a garden fountain, a well of living water, as refreshing as the streams from the Lebanon  mountains."

Solomon's bride was refreshing to him as a fountain.  Could your spouse say the same about you?  Sometimes the familiarity that comes with marriage causes us to forget the overwhelming feelings of love and bliss we shared at the beginning.  Many marriages could use a course in "refreshing."  Do you refresh your spouse, or are you a burden of complaints, sorrows, and problems?  Partners in marriage should continually work at refreshing each other by an encouraging word, an unexpected gift, a change of pace, a surprise call or note, or even the withholding of a discussion of some problem until the proper time.  Your spouse needs you to be a haven of refreshment because the rest of the world usually isn't.
