Love. Why are we so fascinated by it? We swoon over romantic dramas, play love songs on repeat and experience butterflies in the stomach.

Man, woman or child, young or not so young, we are instinctively drawn to love and acceptance, to the point that we often allow ourselves to become vulnerable in the (sometimes vain) hope of reciprocation.

Salt&Light: Inspirational Stories of Faith in Love, Salt&Light’s third book by popular demand, focuses on God’s heart for us in marriage, relationships and singlehood.

The question is: Are we looking for love in all the wrong places? Or is there truly a love out there that will not disappoint or abandon us but complete and fulfil us?

There is indeed.

John 3:16, one of the Bible’s most iconic verses, says: “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.”

It is the greatest love story of human history. God sacrificed His only Son for the love of you and me. As we personally experience this unconditional supernatural Love – gentle, giving, sacrificial, hopeful and eternal – we understand what it means to know the love we seek, whether we are married, in a relationship, or are single.

The 35 stories in this book are of real people who have encountered the waiting, questioning – and sometimes disappointment and setbacks – of real life in their journey of love. But through the ups and downs, they discover that through it all, God has been present.

The Bible says: “There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear.” (1 John 4:18)

Do not be afraid. He is waiting to write your unique love story with you today. Stay open and allow Him to start writing.
