Inspired by a sermon on marriage I watched tonight on the web from New Spring churches series called " I Want a New Marriage", I wanted to share a few things. One, it is right to listen to that little voice inside, for believers, the HS, saying, it is better to trust God and obey Him than to seek divorce for God hates divorce and He is greater than any problems we face in marriage. Two, commitment to our spouse is supposed to be like Christ's love for us, unconditional, not based on our spouse's response, etc. The culture does not support that, but that is the love we are called to have. Three, a covenant is a promise to be the spouse God called us to be until death. Four, marriage is work and Satan will attack it often, but God's ways are powerful and He is able to help us kick butt against the enemy's attacks to fight for our marriage, family, etc. Fight for your marriage, kids, home, etc. Fight with God's word and with faith and with tennacity. The Lord reigns and nothing is too hard for Him. He can preserve marriages. May I be mindful this week of what God wants me to do in my marriage to make it better. I rely on Him for that wisdom and the obedience to follow through.
To the one who gave love that we might have love, I praise Him and rejoice that He has made me glad and that His love can conquer the enemies of my marriage. L
