"Stop Focusing on Marriage"
If you take Jesus’ advice and stop focusing on your marriage, things are going to change. Maybe that’s a scary thought. You can probably envision all sorts of marriage problems that will crop up as a result. But Jesus is never wrong.
Honestly, most of the problems we experience in marriage stem from a lack of relationship with God, which means they are not really marriage problems. They’re God problems.
Jesus actually makes life pretty simple. He boils down the whole Law to a single command: “you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength” (Mark 12:30). He tells us simply to “seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness” (Matt. 6:33). David said that there was only one thing he wanted in life: to be with God and gaze upon His beauty (Ps. 27:4).
Take your eyes off of God and things fall apart. Take your eyes off of God and your marriage could fall apart. Jesus says it simply: “apart from me you can do nothing” (John 15:5).
Take time to either acquaint or reacquaint yourself with God. This is not something that you can accomplish in an instant, nor is it a project you will ever complete. But you can’t strengthen your marriage without developing a habit of drawing near to God.
Discuss with your spouse: How does your relationship with God affect your relationship with your spouse?

In this 30-day reading plan, Francis and Lisa Chan set aside typical approaches to talking about marriage and dive into Scripture to understand what it means to have a relationship that satisfies the deepest parts of our souls. In the same way that Crazy Love changed the way we view our personal relationships with God, You and Me Forever will shift the way we view our marriage relationships.
