“Faithfulness lives where love is stronger than instinct.” ~ Paul Carvel

“I will betroth you to me in faithfulness. And you shall know the LORD.” Hos.2

Faithfulness is the very essence of marriage. Faithfulness says, “I pledge myself to you and no other.” Love moves us to make this commitment; it is also is what enables us to keep it--not the love of feelings mind you, but the love of loyalty. Faithfulness says, “I am yours and yours alone.” I may see other attractions, it might even be my instinct to desire them, but I give myself, body and soul only to you.
