By Dr James Dobson
Do you ever feel like you just don't love your spouse anymore?
The fact is, love is not dependent on our feelings and emotions. The fact is feelings come and go. None of us always feels intensely romantic and loving toward our spouse.
In a genuine love relationship, there are times of closeness and caring, but there are also times of distance and disinterest.
And worst of all, there are times of apathy when a couple feels nothing at all. Emotions are very unstable. And you can't build anything so permanent on something so shaky.
The key to a lifelong love is found in a commitment of the will, which is like the engine on a train. It'll keep you moving down the right track. Once you make up your mind to have a successful marriage, no matter what, you'll no longer be shaken by the ebb and flow of emotions.
Which end of the train is pulling your marital relationship? It's a question worth pondering.
