Love

Yesterday was my second wedding anniversary. I have been going through my old My Space blogs and found one that helped to remind me of why I'm so happy now.... I hope you enjoy:

1 Corinthians 13 is read at most weddings. "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 trust, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails.......and now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love."

How often do we really listen to the verses? Do we treat our spouses with that kind of love? Love is one of the hardest things to show someone. Sometimes, we don't exactly succeed like we wish we could. I really think that after 5 or 6 years of marriage, the wedding ceremony should be repeated....not all of the flowers, dress...yada, yada yada.....but actual ceremony, so that the couple can listen to those words again. Are they still loving their spouse the way they should? It is SO hard. Love is hard work, and takes more than I think we give. If you think it is easy to be patient, your insane and have never had a true relationship.

Look at all relationships and look at the verses. I really think if you try to follow what they say, you will have a wonderful relationship, not only with your loved one, but also with God, which seems to be the most important relationship of them all.

Have a wonderful and blessed day!!
