The "Spark"

Meet-cute, when two people meet unexpectedly in some quirky fashion and they know that there is something special about meeting each other. Sound familiar? It should, because this is what happens in just about every romantic comedy and is what let's the audience know that the couple is about to fall in love. While I'm very aware that this style of finding your future wife or husband is not common, there is some truth in a meet-cute. This is where the spark comes in. For most of my adult life I've never believed in love at first sight or there being that "one" special person for someone. Recently, after some research and a lot of thought my view has changed quite a bit. Long story short, Why would God not have that "one" person that can in some sense be the perfect fit for each of us, let's be honest, God knows what we need more than anyone else. So if you look at love from this perspective then I think it's fair to expect a "spark" with that special someone. Maybe being truly "in" love with someone isn't possible after one date or run-in, but having that feeling that you can't quite explain about the person after only being with them a short time definitely is. That's the "spark," when being with a person just makes sense and you spend your time thinking about the next time you'll get to hang out or talk. Don't mistake what I'm talking about for lust, but genuine feelings that far exceed any form of lust, and if you were reading this and nodding because you know what I'm describing then you understand what I mean, if not, hopefully one day you will. So, I say all that to say this, expect the spark, because if we do love right then love will last our earthly lifetime with someone and without that spark, well....
