Selfless Marriage

 

    God is creative.  He made each and every one of us unique, but the same.  He made us where we can survive almost anything, but we still need other people.  He designed people to need companionship.  Families are meant to the be foundation of society and it all starts with the marriage.

    A man and a woman unite in marriage and become one.  The strength of that one united with God is not easily broken compared to someone on their own.  Marriage is needed to be stronger in this world.  God works in different relationships and seasons, but ultimately he always wanted us to have the strength of a marriage united by Him.

    God brings lives together.  Satan works to tear them apart.  No relationship is meaningless.  They all hold a purpose.  God will allow unhealthy relationships to happen to try to bring people back to Him.  We have free will, so the people we have in our lives are the people that we chose to allow into our lives.  If they are not people that you want in your life, then you have to take accountability and remove them.

    Marriage is not like other relationships.  It is a selfless and caring relationship.  The wife should be the crown on her husband's head.  She should favor her husband over other men.  Marriage requires prudence.  A wife needs to be faithful in all things.  She should be dignified, precious, and a priority to her Godly husband.

    If a husbands has confidence in his wife, then it is a blessing to him.  In return, he needs to take care of her willingly.  Together they should work together in life with willing hands.  That means taking care of all of the needs that the other has without resentment, anger, or frustration.  Choose to love each other selflessly.
