My parents celebrated their 50th anniversary earlier in this month.
I think it is really a good achievement in the present day as so
many couples are getting divorced even among the Christians.
I want to follow my parents example!
In Mark 10:8 it's written that when a couple gets married
the two are united into one.
So why is it nowadays that so often the two becomes one?
The question is:Do we blame the other person and spend all our time trying to fix them?
Or do we rely on God’s commands to work in our own hearts and change our
situation?
The answer is... I can't fix my husband but there are sure things I can change in me!
So what can we do to become a better spouse?
What I learned from the pastor Furtick message is that in my marriage I am called to :
Carry my husband's burdens and not to add to them.
Assume the best: I filter everything through the idea that my husband loves me and cares about me.
Live with the contentment:I daily live content with who I am and who my spouse is and I remember
to be content about all the blessings we have.
Let God be God: I focus to be the wife God has called me to be and trust that God will work on my spouse.
Encourage your strengths:I can pour courage into my spouse!
Do it anyway:Sometimes I don't feel like it,but I have to do it anyway!
This pastor Furtick's sermon really spoke to me and I hope you can watch it too!
I pray that your marriage will continue to be blessed!
