Good Thursday Morning Blog Family. Praying your morning has truly been blessed and you are sharing and spreading the Love of God to others. How you start you mornings will determine how the rest of your day will go. So, starting your day with God is a great start for a blessed and awesome day. Praise God.
This morning it was on my heart to speak to the married couples and couples in relationships. I wanted to put a little something on your minds to think about. You know how we get so rapped up and busy with our day to day lives, sometimes we forget the little things in life that really matter. So, maybe this will get that mind of yours turning a little bit more but in a very positive way. There are a lot of marriages and relationships that are in trouble and there are marriages and relationships that are amazing. Either way, this can help your marriage or relationship or make it even better than it already is.
- To the wrong person you will never have any worth, but to the right person you will mean everything.
- If you only knew who you were married to. When you don’t know what you’ve got, you don’t know how to treat it. When you don’t know the value of something, you don’t know how to take care of it.
- When you perceive wrong, you receive wrong.
- You will not live an obedient life with a closed Bible.
- You cannot have a successful marriage without a relationship with God.
- Nothing ever changes until your mind changes, renew your mind. Get rid of your old way of thinking, your negative thinking, your defeated thinking. God said to renew your mind and He will renew you. When you change your thoughts and the way you think, then you will change.
- When you encounter Jesus, everything changes, nothing stays the same.
- Every now and then, your tears will pray a prayer that your words never could.
- You should be so close to Jesus that your spouse will have to go through Him to get to you.
- You know when things go wrong in our marriage and in our relationships and we decide we are going to pray about this. We’re going to seek God and ask God for His help and advice. Then you say, well I prayed about it but things got worse or nothing changed. That’s because you did not do what God instructed you to do, so nothing changed. When and if you go to God, follow His instructions.
- Going that extra mile to make your spouse feel special. Doing something special for your spouse, not only makes them happy but it makes you feel good as well. Try surprising your spouse and see how it makes both of you feel.
- Are you still doing the same things you were doing when you were dating, trying to make a good impression. Now that you are married, are you still fixing yourself up, looking good, smelling good, etc. Are you still putting forth that same effort?
- There is always room for improvement in your marriage. Don’t always evaluate your spouse, evaluate yourself. What are you bringing to the table, what are putting into the marriage? If you put good things into the marriage, you will get good things out of it. If you put bad things into the marriage, you will get bad things out of it. If you put nothing into the marriage, you will get nothing out of it.
- The way my God loves me and the way I choose to love my God, in returns helps me to love my husband the way he needs to be loved. You can love your spouse with unconditional love when you know how much God loves you and you love God back. I had someone tell me that I have spoiled Gary, no Gary is not spoiled Gary is loved, there’s a difference.
- How often do you say I love you to your spouse? How often do you show your spouse that you love them? Even though I tell Gary every day that I love him, he would know even if I didn’t say it because I show it as well. Love is more than just a word, it is also an action.
- Last but not least, I truly believe that a husband and wife that prays together stays together. Yes, even though you should always pray together, pray for each other during your private prayer time. Always keep your husband or wife lifted up in prayer, in Jesus name.
So, I pray that these few little things I have put on your mind, you will stop and really think about them. As I said earlier, these things will help and bad marriage get better and a good marriage get even better. The point I am trying to make is this, keep God in your marriage and in your life and family. If you don’t already know, NOTHING works without God, NOTHING. God Bless 🙂
