Cultivating a Healthy Marriage

Romans 12:2 NLT) Don’t copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think. Then you will learn to know God’s will for you, which is good and pleasing and perfect.

The World’s Way

1. Find the right person.  Dating is like practicing for a divorce.

2. Falling in  love.

3. Fixing all your hopes and dreams

 on your spouse.

4. If failure occurs, repeat steps 1, 2, and 3.

God’s Way

1. Become the right person.

2. Walking in love.  Love is a choice.  Chose to love and the emotions of love will eventually follow.

3. Fixing all your hopes and dreams

 on God.

4. If failure occurs, repeat steps 1, 2, and 3.

Most marriages fail because of lack of commitment.
