What’s the big deal about love?
Well, let me tell you.
Love…true love…reciprocated love…makes all things better and
brighter.
Having a bad day at work? Having a love to come home to
makes it bearable.
Having a great day at work? Your true love is the first
person you want to share it with.
Just completed a big project? Your sweet love is the one you
want to celebrate with.
Facing a family crisis? Being in love helps you bond
together (as one) to deal with the challenges, rather than fighting against
each other.
When you have a disagreement, and every couple does (even “in
love” couples), love makes you want to hurry up and finish arguing so you can
get back to the business of being in love. It’s true…being in love makes
arguments even more painful. But being in love also makes you work even harder
to resolve your issues. The sweetest make-ups I ever had were with the men I
loved most.
When you see a couple that doesn’t care whether they resolve
their issues, you can bet…they’re no longer in love, if they ever were.
People who are in marriages or relationships of convenience
are missing a vital, crucial part of life. Love is not just life-enhancing. It’s
life-giving. Love is as necessary to life as is breathing. Without love, a part
of you dies a little bit every day. I don’t mean the normal aging process kind
of dying. A marriage without love will cause your heart and soul to die a little (or a lot) every day, which will kill the body
faster than a fatal disease. Marriages without
love are just treading water…coasting. And to coast for any length of time, you
have to be going downhill.
I’m speaking from experience, I have experienced true love!
I know the amazing effect love has on my life. But you don’t have to take my
word for it. Doctors have done studies proving that couples who are truly in
love display the same type of brain activity as newly dating couples,
regardless of how long they’ve been together. And we all know how it feels to
be in a new relationship! It’s also been medically proven that people in love
heal faster.
Love makes you want to stay in shape. Love makes you want to
live longer because true love gives you something to live for.
Love makes life worth it. Love makes you glow…from the
inside out. Love makes you smile in the middle of the day for no reason. Love
makes your heart skip a beat with every little text and phone call. Love makes
dinner dates the most romantic nights ever. Love gives movies and music
meaning. Love gives you a sense of comfort every time you hear your sweetheart’s
voice. Being truly loved makes you feel sexy. Being head over heels in love
makes you feel like you have the most amazing secret in the world.
Love…sweet
love…safe love… makes you breathe easier.
Faith, hope and love…but the greatest of these is Love. I truly
understand that.
Love is clearly and indisputably from God because...Love
brings life.
And only God can create life. True love… life-giving, life affirming
love… is straight from God.
And THAT’S the big deal about love!
Happy Valentine's Day to all the true lovers out there! And a special Valentine's Day wish to my true love.
