True Love Is...
I just recently had an epiphany of what true love really is, true love is not butterflies or that googly feeling that you get when you look at an old classic romantic movie,nor is it when your significant other wears that cologne or perfume that you love so much that gives you this overwhelming feeling. True love is simply endurance,security,and longevity,its when your mate looks at you on your very worst day and still see beauty, its when your down and out and you look over and your love is still right there standing tall to carry you through it all, its when everyone walks away but yet somehow your love still chooses to walk to you no matter your mistakes. True love to me is simply him and me in the full manifestation of what God has called us to be!

Good words Dominique! Years ago, my Pastor taught that the mutual expression of love (in a marriage) is the willingness to do everything in their power to assist your mate in fulfilling their God given purpose. There was a lot more but I have forgotten it (and didn't write it down--wish I had), but I do remember that part. He said if you are not willing to be a support and encourager for your spouse, then your love is questionable. Another thing I've learned over the years, It's not about giving 50-50, God is not in the business of giving us a half blessing. He gives us his all, 100% blessings, so should it be with our mates--both parties give 100%, their all, to each other. Peace and Joy.
