Do you love me?
Nearly every married person had asked their spouse this question at some time or another. And almost every spouse has answered with this statement: “Of Course, I love you! How can you ask that?!”
“But why do you love me?”
That question usually brings a blank stare and uncomfortable silence while you search for the perfect answer. Love is an incredible force. The Bible says, “God is love.” Unfortunately many believers grow up not fully understanding what love really is, and not receiving the incredible benefits that come from walking in love.
Nearly every marriage problem finds its roots in selfishness – The opposite of love. Love is an action, not a feeling. It’s not the emotional goose bumps, or the butterfly flutters you get in the pit of your stomach when you’re around that special someone. Love is a choice – even in hard times. Emotions are great. God created them. In fact, He said in proverbs 5 that husbands and wives should be ravished and intoxicated with each other’s love. Positive emotions are the by products that come from action – action first feelings second. The Word of God gives clear instruction about giving and receiving love. It even talks about how to rekindle feelings of love that died. Our part is simple – but it’s not always easy. When we hear and do what God says. He supplies the goose bumps.
