Never leave your partner


"Marriage is not fireproof, yet never leave your partner when marriage wrestle with fire."

A strong knock on my head when I came across with a conversation between Caleb and his dad on his frustration with his wife, in movie Fire Proof.

Dad, for the last three weeks, l have bent over backwards for her.
l have tried to demonstrate that l still care about this relationship.
l bought her flowers, which she threw away.
l have taken her insults and her sarcasm, but last night was it.
l made dinner for her, l did everything l could to demonstrate...that l care about her, to show value for her...and she spat in my face.
She does not deserve this, Dad.
l am not doing it anymore.
 
How am l supposed to show love to somebody over and over and over...
who constantly rejects me?
 
Caleb, the answer is,
You can't love her... 
because you can't give her what you don't have.
You can’t truly love till you understood what love really was.

Son, God loves you even though you don't deserve it. 
Even though you've rejected him. 
Spat in his face. 
God sent Jesus to die on the cross and take the punishment for your sin...
because he loves you.

So amazed with HIS love, I'm truly undeserved, yet HE calls me a lover of His heart, wow...
