For feelings fluctuate. The come and go. They go up and they go down. They grow strong and they grow weak. They are born and they die.
Marriage is different.
Marriage is the solid structure God provides to hold your fluctuating love. Marriage is the holy estate in which your love comes and goes, and comes again. Marriage is a holy estate with its own laws into which you may enter, but which you do not create and cannot dissolve. Marriage was there long before you ever were, and it will still be there long after you are gone. Within marriage, God wants you to do for each other what Christ did for the church.
