What is Right?


This by no means a Biblical insight but an interesting quote.


"Love is not about finding the right person, but creating a right relationship. It's not about how much love you have in the beginning but how much love you build till the end."

People start relationships for many reasons and not all are about that "loving" feeling, and yet some are only about that "loving" feeling.

Kev and I had a discussion last night about our relationship.  We also did some counsel re: another's relationship.  Sadly some relationships never thrive.

 It is so important that we pray for our single loved ones that they make Godly decisions and commitments to their relationships.  Individuals are lonely, aging, or feel incomplete without a partner so many will marry on the wrong premise...maybe.  I would think some arranged marriages were quite successful and if they are still being arranged, marriages may still be thriving.  What if creating the "right" relationship is what it is all about.

Of course I will say, the right relationship is a relationship with Jesus. If both partners bring Jesus' love into the marriage, then creating the right relationship will be easier.

What is the right relationship for marriage?  How does one describe "right"?  Not sure what it is for you or for anyone else. What I do know that being the "right" wife - the Godly wife is found in scripture for me.  I  just have to be obedient and committed to living out what I believe.

Not sure why I woke up to this quote.  I will however consider building up a relationship with Kevin in this season of our lives that is "happy".  Yes, happy. We deserve to be "happy"!  At this point, our relationship should not be so hard, so distracted, so divided.  We have each other and we have a relationship with Jesus.  Just maybe our built love will  soon tower and shine brightly.
