Apostle Cleophas Tavaya
For our marriages to survive, we ought to practice unconditional love. Every marriage that is based on feelings only will not last. What will you do when the feelings are gone?
Will you still love your spouse:
• When they are sick and need you by their side?
• When they continually make mistakes and fall short?
• When they offend you and don’t immediately say sorry?
• When they continue to show a side of weakness?
• When they snore the whole night without a care in the world 😄
• When they say they can’t be intimate with you — in that very moment you need them most?
When they have lost their job
Love your spouse when there is no reason to.
Tell them how much you love them — even at the end of a heated argument. Choose to speak life into your relationship when everything in you wants to stay silent.
Always seek peace after a fight or a misunderstanding. Don’t let pride build a wall where love once lived. That pursuit of peace, even when you feel you were right, that is unconditional love in action
Before you point out your spouse’s mistake, pause and ask yourself: “What can I do right now to make this relationship better?”
Sometimes the most loving thing you can do is put down your argument and pick up your partner’s hand instead.
Love is not just a feeling — it is a daily decision. Decide to love, even on the hard days. Especially on the hard days.
