Genesis 29:20

So Jacob served seven years to get Rachel, but they seemed like only a few days to him because o his love for her.

It really is sad that Laban's trickery ruins this beautiful love story. But since we're not there yet, we'll focus on this part for now. Love made work a privilege. It made serving a joy. Jacob and Rachel were ready to face the world because they loved each other, and that was all that mattered.

Don't ever let go of the love in your marriage. When life gets in the way, remember why you fell in love. Remember how he was your knight in shining armor, how you couldn't wait to see him again, how you loved doing little things for him. Remember that you made a choice and a promise to love him for better or for worse.
