Lesson 2
1. Guarding Against Divorce
Key #1 Lasting Love is not Physical Attraction
The young girl’s grandfather had died long before she was born. While looking through an old photo album with her grandmother, she realized that grandpa had been at least five inches shorter than his wife. “Grandma,” asked the young girl curiously, “how could you have fallen in love with a man that was five inches shorter than you?” Grandma turned and grinned. “Sweetheart, we fell in love sitting down and when we stood up it was too late.”
A Christian woman confessed during a counseling session, “My marriage was a mistake. I don’t love him anymore!” Then she asked a question that reveals much about the way our world views marriage. “If I don’t love him anymore, do I have to stay married to him?”
Too many in the world, and even in the church, view marriage as a temporary institution and the wedding vows as only a formality. Couples now sign prenuptial agreements to protect their interests should things go wrong—a sure sign that they have not committed themselves entirely to the survival of the relationship. For a marriage to survive, three things must be understood about the commitment of love:
- Lasting love is not physical attraction.
The world makes love sound more like lust with every passing day. We talk about “making love” as if it were a product that could be marketed or a formula that could be mixed up in a bowl. We talk about “falling in love” as if it were an object to trip over or an accident from which we have little protection. If lasting love were based upon physical attraction, prostitutes would be the most fulfilled people in all the world. Instead, the rate of suicide, drug addiction, and other forms of self-abuse escalates among their numbers.
In I Peter 3:3-4, the Holy Spirit says that “…beauty should not come from outward adornment…. Instead, it should be that of your inner self, the unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is of great worth in God’s sight.”
Lasting love comes not from physical beauty, but from an attraction to the inner qualities. This attraction cannot be “love at first glance”. True love takes time, effort, and information. It is not an accidental condition that a person falls in and out of.
The body grows old, but character is timeless. Invest in what is on the inside. Only there will you find “unfading beauty.”
(Note: Lessons three and four will each reveal something else that must be understood about the commitment of love.)
