Tuesday's Quote

The only time folks talk about human covenants is in premarital counseling. How anemic. If our God is a covenantal God then all of relationships are covenantal. The gospel is not about how much I love God (I typically love him very little); it is about how much God loves me.

My relationships are not about how much friends should love me, they are about how much I get to love them. No single should ever expect relational impoverishment by virtue of being single. We should covenant to love people, to initiate, to serve, to commit.
