Meditations on God

Commitment is for when things are inconvenient.

This is especially true of our relationships.

Without commitment, we would simply quit and move on every time things got uncomfortable or frustrating.

Our relationships would have no depth.

We would never really get to know anyone.

Perhaps more importantly, we would never really get to know ourselves.

Commitment is not for when things are going well, but for when they are difficult and uncomfortable, so that we are forced to find our way through hardship and discomfort instead of always running from it.
