Description:... Ever felt like no matter how much we love someone, and try our best to please them, we always seem inclined to mess or screw things up without meaning to? Quite often we forget that love is expressed in many ways and not in the way we ourselves express it. This leads to frequent misunderstanding, arguments, unnecessary pride and feelings of rejection. Love in any relationship––we learn through experience––is not an easy road to maintain unless we give it free reign to manifest itself on a daily basis.
In this collaboration, co-authors––Timi Jolaoso and Reena Doss––explore love’s true nature and how it is expressed within the dynamics of a relationship. The act of surrender, trust, and patience in the face of past experiences can be a daunting and terrifying place to put yourself through. For though the rewards can be incredibly high, the loss can cut deeper than a knife if love is found to be misplaced. However, if love is found first in the nectar of God’s grace, love in a relationship transforms into a supernatural gift where fear no longer plays a dominant role. Love gets refined and becomes purer in its ability to be more giving rather than self-serving. Find out what happens to this couple as they struggle to hold on to their independence, yet learn to die to themselves in order to seal a deeper love granted to them by Heaven’s open door––Love.
