Faithfulness is an attribute of heavenly romance that is extremly misunderstood. How can you be faithful to someone before you even meet? Isn't faithfulness a quality that becomes important once a relationship already exist?
We are all commanded by God to be succesful in mastering the art of faithfulness. Faithfulness is a discipline that is refined and honed through years of practice. Over time it becomes a habit. In a sense, it is learning to love your future spouse through patiently waiting, consistently hoping, and living by the high standard to which you've been called. I like to picture faithfulness as anoak tree, which patiently endures the torrid winds and rains, only to become stronger and more solid as a result. It is strength learned through persevering; it is integrity gained through waiting. It's imperative to the ''beautiful side of love.''
