Sæktu forritiðSpeak to Their Heart: 5 Ways to Love Your Spouse Well Sýnishorn
Center your marriage on Christ.
A marriage between two spouses in covenant with one another and with God is “a cord of three strands.” When we base our relationship on God, it is not easily broken. When we pursue being "joyful in hope, patient in affliction, and faithful in prayer," together, we can experience more joy, peace, and closeness together.
Today, our focus is on making sure that first things are first. That means that in our marriage, and our lives, Christ is first and our spouse is second. Humbly let go of ways that you have insisted on your own way. Ask God to help you put Him first. Doing so will not only make your relationship with Christ flourish, it will ensure that your marriage is awesome!
Sit down with your spouse today and evaluate if the two of you have been honoring your marriage by putting Christ first. Today, let your spouse know that above all you value having a marriage that puts Christ first.
Next Step: Using your spouse’s love language, think of a way to encourage your spouse towards Christ. Be "faithful in prayer," and pray with your spouse today.
