The Different Shades of Love 6

<p>Saturday 20th February&nbsp;</p> <p><br></p> <p><br></p> <p>A lovely Saturday to you in the name of Jesus. We thank God for today and we are still talking about the different shades of love.&nbsp;</p> <p><br></p> <p>Today we will discuss the fifth and the sixth shades of love - Philautia and Ludas. We talked about Pragma and Storge yesterday and we said Pragma is an enduring love. It is a love that grows over time. Ludas means playful love. The issue with Pragma is that if care is not taken, enduring love it could become endurance of love. God doesn't want us to be in relationships where we are merely enduring ourselves He wants us to enjoy our love relationships especially in marriage, that is why Ludas, &nbsp;the fun and play love is very important.</p> <p><br></p> <p>Ludas is they kind of love people in a love relationship mean when they say they have butterflies in their tummy or they talked about their heart racing with excitement or they feel the good chemistry between them. It is the type of love where you are still dating your wife after many years in marriage. It comes with open and public display of affection. You can hold hands, laugh and have fun together. That is what Ludas is about.</p> <p><br></p> <p>In Genesis 26:6, the Bible says regarding Isaac and Rebekah,</p> <p><br></p> <p>&nbsp;And it comes to pass, when the days have been prolonged to him there, that Abimelech king of the Philistines looked through the window, and saw and behold, Isaac was playing with his wife Rebekah.</p> <p><br></p> <p>Let read same scripture from NKJV version:</p> <p><br></p> <p>Now it came to pass, when he had been there a long time, that Abimelech king of the Philistines looked through a window, and saw, and there was Isaac, showing endearment to Rebekah his wife.&nbsp;</p> <p><br></p> <p>The type of love we see here is Ludas. It didn’t matter that Isaac and Rebekah had been married for years, they were still able to play together show love for each other publicly. No matter how old your marriage is, do not endure
