my momma said to my dad, "I will love you forever..."
that was before and during their marriage...
she fought everybody and everything for her husband - until she had proof he no longer loved her, despite his assurances that he did...
my dad said to my momma, "I will love you forever..."
he prided himself his wife would never leave him, regardless of the minor differences of opinion on anything...
until he started seeing another woman as more than a Christian... until he told her he loved her, and would forever...
the marriage dissolved - 5 children were left behind...
he said "I love you..." but he didn't love her the way she believed in love...
their marriage began to be dissolved the second he stopped working on it...
today, he says "I love you" to each of 3 women... he cried at two of them's funeral... it is too late to work on the marriages he hadn't treasured more than his own life...
don't be too late... work on your love for Christ - because one day Jesus will say, "You didn't work on our love - I do not know you..."
