How’s your love life? After all, isn’t life all about love? Of Course it is! Valentine’s Day is over and Americans just spent over $17.3 billion celebrating love. Unfortunately, we have allowed our society and our culture to redefine the true meaning of love. As a result, love is confused with how we feel about someone. Love is considered to be an emotional attachment to another. We love someone because of how they make us feel and because of the emotions we experience when we are together with them. We love someone because of what they do for us. We love this person because he or she meets certain needs of mine. This childish, shallow and selfish “I love you because you…” or “I love you if you…” is the foundation of most friendships and marriages, and hence, most marriages end with divorce because the feelings wane and emotions rise and fall depending on circumstances at hand. What do you have when you don’t have the feelings? When the Valentine’s card is put away, the chocolates are eaten, and the flowers have faded? If you don’t have commitment & covenant, then you are left with nothing, emptiness.
