What will revolutionize your Marriage

When you joined the military, you learned very quickly that accomplishing your unit’s mission is far more important than your individual interests. You also learned that to accomplish your unit’s mission requires a high level of commitment from every member of your unit, despite personal sacrifice. You were trained that as good soldiers, sailors, airmen and marines, you rise to the occasion and do your jobs because that is what you signed up to do.

 

In marriage, you also have a mission that is far more important than individual interests. The mission of your marriage also requires a high level of commitment from both spouses, despite personal sacrifice. In this case, you are not soldiers, sailors, airmen or marines doing your job; rather you are pursuing the health and strength of the single most important relationship on this planet, a relationship that God wants to use to change you, your spouse and your world. The question you have to ask yourself is, are you in this marriage for your own good or for the good of your unit (i.e. your marriage)? You cannot have it both ways.

 

Remember that we have one life to live and if you are going to be married, why not make your marriage the best it can be?  Why go through life miserable? God has blessed you with a wonderful partner, now go and change the world together.
