The Decision To Marry – Part III

The Decision to marry - Part III

Does love last for a life time? Do you believe in falling in love over and over again with the same person? What of the concept of friendship to build a good marriage?

What is love?
How do you know that what you feel for someone is love, and not something else? How do you know you are not headed for hurt?
The dictionary definitions of love are an intense feeling of deep affection OR a deep feeling of romantic or sexual attachment to someone.

I think that love is a RESULT… a result of appreciating another’s goodness. “Love has nothing to do with what you are expecting to get — only with what you are expecting to give — which is everything.”

Love is the one thing that can never hurt anyone, although it may cost dearly. The paradox of love is that it is supremely free, yet attaches us with bonds stronger than death. It cannot be bought or sold. There is nothing it cannot face. Love is life’s greatest blessing.

One of the best things about “being in love” is that you feel really good about yourself. It’s not only that you perceive the other person as terrific. It’s the fact that you feel terrific about who you are and what you are all about.

Yes, emotions are contagious. People catch them from others. So, when your love is acting lovingly towards you, it is natural for you to feel joyous, confident, smart, and secure.
True love is caring, attractive, attached, committed, and intimate.
The Bible’s definition of Love is patience, kindness, not envious, not-boastful, not-proud. The Bible still goes on to say that love is not rude, not self-seeking, not easily angered, keeps no record of wrong.

Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts always hopes, and always perseveres. Love never fails.

My best definition of love is that love is a choice, a choice to care deeply for another’s good, a choice to look out for the good of another, a choice to give oneself wholly for the good of another.

Love is not for the timid-minded. Love is a beautiful thing. It’s the best gift you can give to yourself.
Obviously, there are different reasons people decide to take it to the next level, but having a genuine feeling of love for another is a good reason.

Remember, what is going to happen in your marriage relationship, and wedding preparation depends on the reason you decided to marry in the first place.
