Semantics of Love:

Semantics of Love Agape Love Walks With God Good disciples of Christ tend to make good relationship partners and spouses. People who are not pursuing an intimate relationship with God are significantly limited. They are left to rely upon the weaknesses of their own feelings, thoughts and efforts. When we refuse to be centered in Agape Love, our spouses are left to deal with the fallout. (Dill Pickle Love) (This section is based on and inspired by the devotional book for couples, The Love Dare, Day by Day)

Semantics of Love:

Semantics of Love Agape Love Walks With God Only those living in a relationship with God are able to access His “toolbox” for marriage. His Word (the Bible) will nourish you spiritually and equip you with everything needed for marriage. His counsel (through prayer) can guide your decisions with divine wisdom thus minimizing the pitfalls resulting from bad choices.

Semantics of Love:

Semantics of Love Agape Love Walks With God Rather than your spouse having to depend on their own influence to move you towards self-improvement, they find peace in the knowledge that the Holy Spirit is already busy transforming and maturing you from the inside out. It is romantic for a woman to see her strong husband humbling himself before God. It is inspiring for a man to see his wife living with deep conviction and passion both as an individual and as a partner.

Semantics of Love:

Semantics of Love Agape Love Walks With God Walking with God in a relationship based in the power of Agape Love is far superior to reading a thousand marriage books or attending a thousand counseling sessions.
