Home Improvement

My wife is going to be happy, I blogged about marriage two times in a row!!!

My wife and I just went to a marriage seminar a couple put on at our seminary (grad school). I wanted to share one of their points with you. It is actually their marriage mission statement that my wife and I are adopting as ours as well.

"The Goal of Marriage is to reflect the glory of God and to enhance the glory of your mate." (author of the book, Intimate Allies, said this)

Marriage should reflect the relationship between God the Father and God the Son, Jesus Christ.

We can do this by striving to have:

1) Ultimate Commitment

2) Extreme Submission

3) Unconditional Love

If we do these three things in any relationship not just marriage, we will bring GLORY to GOD and we will enhance the GLORY of OUR MATE/SIGNIFICANT OTHER!
