What a wonderful morning to wake up with the most important person in the world—my husband cheering & convincing me to stretch up and read the bible first thing in the morning. Hey, rare is the man who can do that, and I’m blessed to have one! 😀
We just had our once every week couples’ night last friday in our community church.We usually gather to share some funny, crazy & encouraging thoughts about married life. The discussion will start by sharing our High (good things that happened to us during the week), Low (things that made us upset during the week) Bible readings (a must!) , and the newest on the list, answering “What is the best thing your spouse did to you this week?”. Then we will end up reviewing the last topic discussed during Sunday service.
Part of our group’s resolution is to devote ourselves in reading God’s word with our spouse first thing in the morning. Our pastor recommended a book entitled, “Praying for our Marriage”. The book contains 100 days of devotional readings which you and your spouse can read over a cup of coffee to set the tone of your marriage for the rest of your day. We were able to get a copy of the book last night and we’ve just finished reading the first chapter,yey! 😀
According to the book, each chapter contains an essay, Bible verse, quotations, and a prayer, all of which can help you and your beloved focus on the blessings and opportunities that God has placed before you.
My hubby read the book for me over a cup of coffee and we prayed right after.’twas so amazing and I really feel loved and secured with the the man I married a year ago.See, even our mugs were so in love & happy! Lol!
Marriage is designed by God to make our life easy because according to His word in Genesis 2:18, “It is not good for a man to be alone; I will make a helper suitable for him.” Having someone to grow old and share this life with us is indeed an expression that God loves and He really cares for us. So let’s not forget to include our Creator in our marriage life by reading His words, “For everything comes from him and exists by his power and is intended for his glory. All glory to him forever! Amen.” Romans 11:36
