Your Question:
What happens when love becomes a daily choice in the chaos of everyday life?
Answer:
As a pastor and a husband of 19 years, I've seen firsthand the importance of making love a daily choice in the chaos of everyday life. When Susan and I were first married, our love was strong and all-consuming, but over the years, it's required intentional effort to keep it alive. We've had to make a conscious decision to prioritize our relationship, to communicate effectively, and to show affection and appreciation for each other. In my experience, love is not just a feeling, but a choice that requires sacrifice and commitment. When I'm busy with my church responsibilities or my family's needs, it's easy to let my love for Susan take a backseat. But I've learned that making love a daily choice means putting her needs and feelings above my own, even when it's hard. It means being patient, kind, and understanding, even when we disagree. And it means showing her love and affection in practical ways, like cooking her favorite meals or surprising her with small gifts. For me, making love a daily choice has become a spiritual discipline, a way of living out my faith in my marriage. When I prioritize my love for Susan, I'm not just building a stronger relationship, I'm also growing in my relationship with God. I'm reminded that love is not just a feeling, but a choice that requires sacrifice and commitment. And when I choose to love Susan with all my heart, I'm choosing to love God with all my heart, and that's a choice that brings joy and fulfillment to my life.
