I love going to weddings, and I have been to a lot of them recently. Weddings are a beautiful time to see a couple commit their lives to each other, in front of their friends and loved ones. They promise that they will love each other and lay down their life for the life of their mate. You have probably noticed this too, that newlyweds can be so devoted to one another that they love serving each other. Sometimes it’s even a contest of who can serve more. Lynn and I were like that! But if you look around at older married couples, that sweet, innocent, loving devotion to serve one another can sometimes get tarnished. We often don’t serve each other out of devotion anymore, we do it out of duty, or we tell our mate that they can fend for themselves! The sweetest thing ever is when I see an older couple that keeps freshness in their relationship. They serve one another out of love. In fact it becomes a life long competition of who can out serve the other. It takes a conscious effort to continue doing that year after year, but boy is it worth it. Let’s keep love alive in our marriages, and remember that since we are called to love one another, love is action. Love is a verb. I encourage you to refresh and recharge your relationships. Put some action to your devotion!
