Day 3: Set boundaries
Jesus describes a fascinating phenomenon in Matthew 19. When a man and a woman are married, he describes them as being “united into one.” It’s as if a protective fence is placed around the two that nothing can penetrate.
Marriage is an exclusive bond. The two of you operate as a unit, and it’s crucial to prioritize your needs as a couple above anything else. You and your spouse will need to choose what is allowed into your relationship and what is kept away for the sake of your connection. This exclusivity may sound excessive or intimidating, but you’ll find that it actually strengthens the intimacy and the integrity of your marriage.
How can you and your spouse establish a protective fence around your marriage?
