THE LAWYER WHO MARRIED A TAILOR AND NEVER LOOKED BACK | Dag Heward-Mills

Bishop Dag Heward-Mills teaches that first love for God is not something that can be taught but must spring spontaneously from within. He illustrates this with the story of a lawyer who fell in love with a tailor on her street and married him despite everyone's objections, showing that first love sees no faults and counts no cost. He contrasts this with the fading of love, when every small complaint and imperfection becomes visible, and points to the Songs of Solomon as the Bible's great portrait of unreserved first love. He then turns to Acts 20:23-24 where the Apostle Paul declares that bonds and afflictions await him in every city, yet none of these things move him, neither does he count his life dear unto himself, so that he might finish his course with joy. Bishop Dag charges the congregation to walk their journey with God in that same spirit, finishing the race not with weariness or sadness but bubbling with joy, laughter, and praise despite every hardship life brings.
