Christian Courting~ True love is a high and holy principle, altogether different in character from that love which is awakened by impulse (feelings, emotions) and which suddenly dies when severely tested....True love is not a strong, fiery, impetuous passion (hasty and headstrong passion). On the contrary, it is calm and deep in its nature. It looks beyond mere externals and is attracted by qualities alone. It is wise and discriminating, and its devotion is real and abiding....Love is a precious gift, which we receive from Jesus. Pure and holy affection is not a feeling, but a principle. Those who are actuated by true love are neither unreasonable nor blind. – {Ellen G White; Letters To Young Lovers; Pg. 29.4, 30.2, 30.1}
