Why Some People Fail When It Comes To Love And Marriage
When it comes to love many cannot be accountable for their action because they lack the spirit of commitment. When it comes to love and commitment it requires a person who desires to share their mind and love with the person they chose to love.
"For this reason, a man shall leave his father and his mother, and be joined to his wife; and they shall become one flesh." Genesis 2:24
Love and commitment should be something that both parties are willing to share with each other. Anytime there is a one-way commitment when it comes to love, love will tend to elude the one that desires to be loved, for love cannot love without receiving love in return.
"When a man takes a new wife, he shall not go out with the army nor be charged with any duty; he shall be free at home one year and shall give happiness to his wife whom he has taken." Deuteronomy 24:5
To share love requires a commitment of two people who are willing to not look at their individual needs but the needs of each other as one.
One flesh, One love. No love can survive without a solid foundation of love. This is a spiritual love given from above sealed by the love of our Heavenly Father so that nothing can come between this love.
"Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ also loved the church and gave Himself up for her, so that He might sanctify her, having cleansed her by the washing of water with the word, that He might present to Himself the church in all her glory, having no spot or wrinkle or any such thing; but that she would be holy and blameless." Ephesians 5:25-27
When God brings two people together in love and marriage it will last a lifetime. However, it, when we chose to love others and to be loved on our accord, is when love fails.
It fails because we allow our physical needs to control us and direct us in our search for love. A love like this will only pass during the night and will lack the commitment that binds love and marriage
