I think that "in love" feeling is more than lust than anything else. It is all pure emotion. Sticking it out, even through the tough times, takes a conscious decision to love your spouse, no matter what.

Living God's blessings with grace and dignity~

Love never gives up, never loses faith, is always hopeful, and endures through
every circumstance.
