I just finished "Love the One You're With" by Emily Giffin. Here's something the protagonist says near the end of the book:
"But maybe that's what it all comes down to. Love, not as a surge of passion, but as a choice to commit to something, someone, no matter what obstacles or temptations stand in the way. And maybe making that choice, again and again, day in and day out, year after year, says more about love than never having a choice to make at all."
She agrees with us. Love is a choice; a choice you make every day.
Sara--
And that is why I can stand for my marriage restoration. I have made a conscious decision to love my DH through all of this. That was why I took the bomb hard, too. I had made that decision the day I got married--that no matter what happened, I would always make the decision to love my husband. I thought he had done the same.

Love never gives up, never loses faith, is always hopeful, and endures through every circumstance. I Corinthians 13:7
