Love proves itself with the passage of time. Based on Genesis 29:16-20, this sermon exposes a sharp contrast between lust and unconditional (true) love where the latter is defined as a unique kind of vision while the former's blindness is so determined to ignore what is painfully obvious to everyone else that the object of its affection is not worthy of affection. Love sees the potential and the promise that is often overlooked. Love sees the ideal in the actual... so that the actual is transfigured by the ideal. Love is not blind to the defects of the loved one, it is just willing to accept those defects faithfully knowing that greater outcome will eventually result.
