Dry Spells

I once heard these words of wisdom: It is when your wife is cold that you must love her all the more.

Indeed, this goes both ways-- for marriage to work, the warmth of one spouse must make up for a lack on the other's, no matter the reason for the sputtering flame. It is through loving each other more through those difficult times that the flame will burst forth with new life. It is the same then in the marriage of the Lamb. We know that God is always pouring forth His infinite love for us, especially when we turn away does He gently woo us back. We must return this love, that when we have dry spells in our spiritual life that we make the decision to love God MORE, not less, that our flame may burn all the more brightly in time.
