if you ever want to know if you're in full blown, sanctified, set apart love, or just strong infatuation - here's a little something that may be helpful, that will tease out the truth from the lie... real love works for/with/because/in spite of one another... this is true for couples, and correlates with our spiritual relationship with God... believers need the combined power of the Godhead in our unions to be victorious...
...because when the times get so rough
even my heart wants to scream "enough!"
my mind overrules that noise
for there is no other direction but forward
and no other way to deal, but straight
and though either or both of us caused the problem
we vowed to be part of the solution
when bad circumstances find us unbalanced,
we lock arms and rise above them
refusing to be drawn under
...because there is no issue too deep
and no obstacle so immovable that
we can't find our way around or clean through it
...because I looked in your face that day
and declared I'm not afraid
...because I was made to go the distance
...because there's no amount of hell on earth
that can reverse this life decision
...because trouble don't last always
and by the strength of our faith and God's awesome grace
we'll move on into heaven!
