Marriage Matters #3

Psalm 34:18                                             

The Lord is near to the brokenhearted and saves the crushed in spirit.

More than once I've said to my husband, "Just promise me you will never leave me and love someone else." My man of few words says, "Okay." We have both hurt each other over the past 45 years, but we have never gone further apart than separate bedrooms for a few hours, because we both know the importance of forgiveness.

If you forgive others for the wrongs they do to you, your Father in heaven will forgive you.  Matthew 6:14  

It is God's intent for marriage to be a gift. It's a gift that requires a whole lot of giving.    A valued treasure requiring sacrifice and submission to protect.  When the tough times come, and they will, remember the lyrics in the song below.

"I know you think you're too far gone, but hope is never lost, hold on don’t let go."

February Heart Quote

When Christ's love fills our hearts, it puts selfishness on the run.  Billy Graham
