Our Greatest Love

What better way to start than at the beginning – the creation of man and woman. One of the things that always stuck out most to me was how God truly provided for Adam. He saw that man was not good alone, and created Eve. It reminds me of how God knows everything about us and provides for us – even a spouse.

In marriage, your partner is also your helpmate and friend that can come alongside you and compliment you.

We have a precious couple in our studio that has been married for 48 years! This is pretty rare this day and time. You can tell that they are still madly in love with one another. He still opens the car door for her. :)

God is love. If you desire to truly love your spouse in a way that is perfect and complete, continue to know God. Seek God daily and allow His love to transform your heart. This will strengthen your understanding of love and your capacity to love in an extraordinary way. God brings other things, other people, into our lives. So that we learn to love Him supremely.

I am thankful for my husband, Jody. I love him dearly, but he is not my Savior; he is my fellow sojourner. 

Our marital relationships were never meant to become an Idol. We are to love God above all of the wonderful, amazing blessings He bestows upon us in this life. God does not want to be one of our many loves. He wants to be our greatest love. He wants us to see that even if we have the best of everything in this world, His love is still far better.

Blessings,
Dalinda
