#1: Love is a COMMITMENT
(It's not just a contract, a permanent relationship, successful marriage requires determination)
#2: LOVE is a FEELING
Which you can find it in Song of Solomon chap 4 verse 6-7, chap 5 verse14,16. Genesis 29, Song of Solomon chap 2 verse 5
Do you know that it takes only 8.2 seconds for a man to fall in love! Surprising right?
"Dopamine" - Chemistry of love, feeling like in heaven
"Norepinephrine" - Excited, sweaty palms
"Sertonin" - Obsessed feeling about their love
All the above chemistry of love in a man only last 2-3 years time! And that is where marriage needs to kick in!
"Oxytocin" - Emotional bonding/Sex context
"Endorphin" - Well-being /Peaceful/Security/Sex context
#3: Love is an ACTION
1 John 3:18 - When you don't feel like doing it, it is the HIGHEST form of love.
Loving actions bring loving feelings such as Hugs, Kisses, Physically Touch, Eye contact. All these helps reduce stress, and would enhance the relationship.
It's is proven that Man who kisses their wife daily tend to live 5 years longer!
In Revelation 2: 4-5, it is written "
4 Yet I hold this against you: You have forsaken the love you had at first. 5 Consider how far you have fallen! Repent and do the things you did at first. If you do not repent, I will come to you and remove your lampstand from its place."
The bible says You can get your first love back!However, Love is never passive, not just waiting, but making a decision to court your partner all over again.
(This message is brought to you with love... I sincerely hope that with love existence, more couples will be able to experience a brand new new way and level of a relationship with their partner. Sharing is Caring. Wishes all love birds to stay in love with each other more and more and more... May God bless you and your partner!)
