An older married couple offered these words of advice one day to a young newly married couple just starting out:
Your love is priceless and needs to be guarded. Selfishness, pride, lack of forgiveness, and inattentiveness are but some of the many thieves capable of stealing away your love. In a sense, your marriage is like a treasure chest forming a protective case around your love – preventing it from being stolen.
As I read this quote I quickly thought, “How true!” Up to this point in our series called “Pure Pleasure,” the couple has experienced many good things about love. No doubt it has been pure pleasure. But this week something creeps in to interrupt their love for each other. We can all learn from their experience, whether we are married or not. Come this week to see how we can guard our love like a precious treasure.
