"Take us the foxes, the little foxes, that spoil the vines; for our vines have tender grapes."- Song of Solomon 2:15
These little foxes represent the small faults we some- times display: a mean look, words that hurt others, little acts of selfishness, etc. Although little foxes are beautiful animals and seem very innocent, they are capable of doing much damage, eating the tender grapes and destroying them. These grapes represent our characters; how careful we should be of little faults which spoil our characters. Psalms 19:3

Follow...holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord. Hebrews 12:14
HOLINESS is not a charm which we may put in our pockets; it is not a garment which may be worn occasionally. Holiness resembles more the tempering of a piece of metal; it enters into the entire fiber, changing its general characteristics; it is transforming in its influence. True, there is a holiness reckoned to the Lord's people in the robe of Christ's righteousness, which is granted to us when first we turn from sin, accept the Redeemer, and consecrate ourselves to God. But this is not sufficient. We must work into our characters that which we have willed--or, as the apostle expresses it, we must allow the Lord to work in us the holy will, and the holy conduct which must necessarily accompany the holy will, as opportunity and conditions will permit.
