The Choice To Love
Love is not a feeling; overtime it becomes a choice. I am aware that this statement destroys the whole romantic notions of what love is "supposed" to be, and to all of the die hard romantics, I do apologize for bursting your whimsical and enchanting bubble, but allow me to share the truth about authentic love.
Here is a secret that most married couples are not brave enough to share, because they feel the need to present a facade of perfection. But the truth people.....Are you ready???
You will not always feel like loving. There I said it.....But in spite of your feelings, you will continue to love. How? Through the beautiful example of love that are Heavenly Father has shared with us.
Check out this amazing scripture in 1 Corinthians 13:
Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
Wow........this is the real deal! This is what love is all about.
So even throughout our daily, mundane moments of life there will be moments of romance. And those moments are so very sweet and precious; but do not allow those fleeting cherished moments to become the sole reason for loving a person.
Seek a spiritual connection with your spouse. A kinship that goes beyond the flesh and earthly desires, and your bond will become infallible.
Peace and Blessings

Song of Solomon 8:7 Many waters cannot quench love; rivers cannot wash it away. If one were to give all the wealth of his house for love, it would be utterly scorned. (NIV)
