I suppose that I am an incurable romantic, but I still believe that through all of the toils and tears in life, love will persevere. But true love is far more than that.
True love runs much deeper.
It surpasses the feelings of physical attraction, and manifests itself in the attraction of two hearts yearning to grow closer to God. In the process, these two hearts connect on a level that few will experience in this lifetime. They are closest to one another when they are closest to the One who brought them together. I also believe, as the quote above illustrates, that the greatest of loves in life require the greatest risks. Christ gave his life in an act of love.
