LOVE ALONE IS NOT ENOUGH

And when the time was that Elkanah offered, he gave to Peninnah his wife, and to all her sons and her daughters, portions:

5 But unto Hannah he gave a worthy portion; for he loved Hannah: but the LORD had shut up her womb.

1 Samuel 1: 4-5

There is difference between marriage and love. Elkanah gave Peninnah his wife, and to all her sons and daughters portions after the sacrifice because he was married to her and they were his responsibility

But to Hannah, he gave double portion because he LOVED herπŸ”₯πŸ€”πŸ€”.

You may be married but do you love your spouse, do you do what you do for him/her out of love or you only do because it your responsibility.

Let do all things out of love, from a loving heart because love conquers multitude of sins and perfect love bring the best out of people. Knowing that, someone do what they do for You wholeheartedly because they love you is a great feeling and keeps you going always.

8 Then said Elkanah her husband to her, Hannah, why weepest thou? and why eatest thou not? and why is thy heart grieved? am not I better to thee than ten sons?

1 Samuel 1:8

Sometimes we cry over our problems because of the precipitating/external factors or cause. Hannah was looking for a child of her own because of the ill treatment her rival Pinennah was giving her. If Elkanah had only Hannah as his wife and she was barren, she wouldn't have passed through such. What Hannah was seeing sitting down, his husband was standing but still not seeingπŸ€”.

Please let avoid people and things that can/are stumbling block to us loving our spouses or love ones wholeheartedly. Hannah was not only crying because she has no child but she also believed that when she gives birth to even one child, she wouldn't go through such ill treatment from her rival. The best gift you can ever give your partner is making him or her feel safe in your hands. Do not let a third party be your number one focus than your spouse because when such happens, you can give him/her(spouse) heaven to earth filled with gifts but he/her wouldn't be happy. Aside God, choose your spouse first and enjoy a fruitful marriage/love lifeπŸ™πŸ”₯

Learn to make your spouse or spouse to-be your best friend so that in your marriage journey, any day you feel the marriage vibe is diminishing, the best friend vibe will keep the marriage bond still active and easy goingπŸ™
