It is love that draws two people into marriage. It is love that holds them together in marriage. Before marriage, love transforms lif into a dream. In marriage, love gives the strength to turn these dreams into reality. Love is the magnet that draws two people to live together. And in living together, love becomes the fertile ground on which happiness is nurtured.
Love is faithful, loyal and true.The one who loves is prepared to entrust his life to the beloved. This is not to say that love is gullible or naive. Rather, love is not suspicious but trustful. Love is ready and willing to make unreserved commitment to the beloved. Love is willing to accept risks. Love always gives the benefit of the doubt to the beloved. Love will stay committed to the beloved regardless of circumstances and in spite of what others may say or do. Love remains true despite the failures and faults of the beloved. Love always hopes. Love has the firm conviction that the present imperfections of the beloved are not permanent or final. God is at work in our lives.
Love is a journey.It is not the destination at the end of the road. Love, rather, is the road we walk on in marriage. Love does not come automatically. Love requires effort. Love is work--hard work. But love works. It is in fact the only thing that works in having a successful marriage. Love is God's gift to those who obey Him. We cannot love by the sheer effort of our will. We become capable of love only as we allow God to take control of our lives.
