Marriage is one of the greatest things we can do on Earth.
Mark 10:9 What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder.
When a man and woman commit their lives one to the other, I would imagine neither of them are looking to divorce in the future. I would imagine they both are looking for a lifetime of memories. Unfortunately, life happens. One or the other becomes unsatisfied with the way the other is going and before you know it, they end up on an episode of Jerry Springer.
It’s a sad day when a couple that was once in love with one another succumbs to Satan’s temptation to quit. But, instead of divorce, how does a couple mend hearts and love again? Sacrifice. Both parties must live a life of sacrifice. They must say, “Not my will but God’s will be done.” Sacrifice like our Saviour sacrificed, obediently. Learn to love like Jesus loves; unconditionally. Learn to forgive like Jesus forgives; limitless. Learn to compromise in the non-essentials. Do things together. When you sacrifice your will for the will of your spouse, you will begin to mend, heal, and love again!
