Your Question:

What does love look like in the darkest night?

Answer:

As I reflect on the question, "What does love look like in the darkest night?" I am reminded of the struggles that many couples face in their marriages. In our society, we often idealize romantic love and expect it to be the source of meaning and fulfillment in our lives. However, as a pastor, I have seen many couples struggle with the darkness of life, and I have come to realize that true love is not about idealizing romance, but about persevering through the difficult times.

For my wife Susan and me, love has looked like standing together through the darkest nights of our marriage. We've had our fair share of struggles, but through it all, we've learned to communicate, to forgive, and to love each other unconditionally. It's not always easy, but it's in those moments of darkness that we've come to realize that our love is not just a feeling, but a choice. We choose to love each other, even when it's hard, even when it's dark.

As I look at my own family, I see love in the darkest night as a choice that my wife and I make every day to prioritize our relationship and our children. My son Joshua and daughter Rebecca are growing up, and they face their own struggles and challenges. But in the midst of it all, we as a family choose to love each other, to support each other, and to be there for each other, even when it's hard. That's what love looks like in the darkest night – it's a choice to persevere, to forgive, and to love, even when it's difficult.
