What LOVE got to do with it...

For any marriage to thrive there must be that one element: LOVE. Love is not the show of money, the giving of one’s body to another…naah! What’s love then? Love is of the Spirit. What do you mean by this? Love comes from the inside…Love is shown from a heart of truth and not of pretense. The gifts, the show of affection, care, etc, all come forth from this fountain in the Spirit that flows like an unending river.

Love is kind, not jealous, not selfish, not “secret planning”. Love is of a free spirit. Love is an expression of an unending character of affection. It continues, without restrains. Without love; marriage becomes a business (so to speak) like a partnership business, why? Because the parties involved will be seeking profits than co-existency and co-productivity. 

If love is lacking in a marriage the first sign is a consistent occurrence of disagreements, bitterness, and continuous friction and pain.

Really marriage is to be enjoyed. But it can’t be enjoyed without Love.

Someone asked me sometime: “How do I love?”

Well the answer is simple (I will guide you to the Book where the tenets of genuine love are stated…) try and make a reading (even though you may not be Christian) but read it still….

1 Corinthians 13:1 – 13:

Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not love, I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal.

And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not love, I am nothing.

And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, and have not love, it profiteth me nothing.

Love suffereth long, and is kind; love envieth not; love vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up,

Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil;

Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth;

Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things.

Love never faileth: but whether there be prophecies, they shall fail; whether there be tongues, they shall cease; whether there be knowledge, it shall vanish away.

For we know in part, and we prophesy in part.

But when that which is perfect is come, then that which is in part shall be done away.

When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things.

For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known.

And now abideth faith, hope, love, these three; but the greatest of these is LOVE.

This is the way to Love!

Thank you.
