Let me look upward into the branches of the towering oak and know that it grew great and strong because it grew slowly and well. – Wilfred Peterson
There is a love that has grown slowly yet ever so deeply. This kind of love is not one that arrives with a lot of noise, excitement and thrill. It is not a love that promises much yet fails to live up to its own promises.
Rather, this love is a love that grew little by little. It became faithful from day to day and grew stronger through time. It is a love that was able to hang on in good times and in bad, in exciting times and in seemingly boring days. It is a love that has learned to be patient. And because it has been patient, it has grown deep.
When it grew deeply, this love could not be brought down anymore by any passing storm. Its roots could no longer be torn away by fierce winds. It has become a love that can withstand what’s difficult and tough because it is firmly planted in faith, hope and true humility.
This is a love that can truly last: a deep, abiding and faithful love.
Many men claim to be men of unfailing love,
but who can find a faithful man?
-Proverbs 20:6, WEB-BE
Find hope in your darkest hour.
