"I once heard Joyce Meyer say that you CANNOT love someone without
giving something up. Call it compromise, call it whatever, but if you
really think about, its the truth. Love really does hurt. There's no way
that it can't. You can't keep acting like a single person, or keep
doing the same things that you used to do if you're in a relationship.
There's a part of each of you that has to "give" or "die" so that the
relationship can survive and have a "life" of its own. And this goes for
all types of relationships, not just the romantic kind.
The same goes for our relationship with God and being Christians. Loving God can and
will hurt
sometimes because of our sinful nature and the nature of the world. But
the rewards of pushing through that fleeting moment of pain is
everlasting. Because we don't find true comfort in other people or
things, but rather from the fact we've accepted what Jesus has done for
us."
-James Constantino
