It’s amazing how thin the line between love and hate is. One moment you feel like you can’t live without this person and the next, you can barely stand each other. Love is patient and kind. It is not selfish neither is it proud. Love is not easily provoked. It bears all things and endures all things.
When we love someone, it shouldn’t just be a feeling but a decision because the feeling would not always be there. There would be times when what we feel is nothing close to love. It is at such times that our decision to love that person will make us fight for our love and not fight each other. I want to share the lyrics of a song by Warren Barfield with you;it sums up everything I want to say:
“Love is not a Fight”
Love is not a place
To come and go as we please
It’s a house we enter in
Then commit to never leave
So lock the door behind you
Throw away the key
Work it out together
Let it bring us to our knees
Love is a shelter in a raging storm
Love is peace in the middle of a war
And if we try to leave
May God send angels to guard the door
No love is not a fight
But it’s something worth fighting for
To some love is a word
That they can fall into
But when they’re falling out
Keeping that word is hard to do
Love is a shelter in a raging storm
Love is peace in the middle of a war
And if we try to leave
May God send angels to guard the door
No love is not a fight
But it’s something worth fighting for
Love will come and save us
If we’ll only call
He will ask nothing from us
But demand we give our all
Love is a shelter in a raging storm
Love is peace in the middle of a war
And if we try to leave
May God send angels to guard the door
No love is not a fight
But it’s something worth fighting for.
