Blessing Your Marriage

"Marriage should be honored by all." Hebrews 13:4

Does your marriage matter? Matter to who? Well, does your marriage matter to your friends? To your church family? Does your marriage matter to your parents? What about – does your marriage matter to your children? And most importantly, does your marriage matter to you? When things or people or anything matters to us, we tend to behave in ways that prove that is so.  If you were to list on a scale of 1-5, your top priorities in your life, where would your marriage be on that list?  Do you do things regularly that bless your marriage- grow your relationship – improve the health of your marriage?  Today, what could you say to your husband that will let him know that he is loved by you?  Can you show energy and attention to them?  Your  marriage matters to God even more than it matters to you! He is the creator of marriage and He says that marriage is good for you. It is good for the family of God and it is good for your children.
How do you show God that your marriage matters?

Take Action: Begin today to pray for husband. Ask God’s blessing on his safety, for protection over his job, for his spiritual walk.
Wisdom from the Word:
“Love must be sincere. Hate what is evil; cling to what is good. Be devoted to one another in love. Honor one another above yourselves. Never be lacking in zeal, but keep your spiritual fervor, serving the Lord. Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer.” Romans 12:9-12
