Relationships in Marriage = love barometer

I like this quote from Paul Tripp in his book--"What did you Expect?? Redeeming the Realities of Marriage" ----

Based on 1 John 4 and especially verse 20("If anyone says, 'I love God,' and hates his brother, he is a liar; for he who does not love his brother whom he has seen cannot love God whom he has not seen"), Tripp states:

"Your love for your husband or wife is a very accurate barometer of your true love for God."

Now this is something to think about! For other intersesting quotes this week go here to the Monday post about a "Week in Words: http://barbarah.wordpress.com/

Hmmm... That's a harsh, but true statement. I love God inasmuch as I demonstrate love for others. Yikes!
