1. “Love is a commitment that will be tested in the most vulnerable areas of spirituality, a commitment that will force you to make some very difficult choices. It is a commitment that demands that you deal with your lust, your greed, your pride, your power, your desire to control, your temper, your patience, and every area of temptation that the Bible clearly talks about. It demands the quality of commitment that Jesus demonstrates in His relationship to us.”
– I, Isaac, Take Thee, Rebekah: Moving from Romance to Lasting Love
2. “Yes, if truth is not under girded by love, it makes the possessor of that truth obnoxious and the truth repulsive.”
3. “Love is hard work. It is the hardest work I know of, work from which you are never entitled to take a vacation.”
