Stay Married Longer

Rebecca and Tim were high school sweethearts. The sappy kind. They were deeply in love and had been married for several years. Rebecca was a talented artist, and Tim was a dedicated teacher. People considered them a weird match, but they were good for one another, but like any couple, they faced their fair share of challenges.

One day, Rebecca and Tim realized that their busy lives had started to pull them in different directions. They found themselves spending less time together and feeling disconnected. Their once vibrant relationship had lost some of its spark. Recognizing the trouble they were in, Rebecca and Tim decided to act. They embarked on a journey to renew their bond and rediscover the wonder they once had. They turned to their faith to guide them.

Rebecca and Tim started by prioritizing their time together. They set aside regular date nights to enjoy each other’s company, talk about their dreams, and simply have fun as they did as teenagers. During these moments, they laughed, listened, and truly connected.

They also began to incorporate spiritual practices into their daily lives. Together, they started reading the Bible, praying, and seeking God’s guidance for their marriage. Previously, they let differences divide them, and now, they exposed them to the Light and let them dissolve like a slug melting on a hot sidewalk.

As they continued to grow spiritually, Rebecca and Tim forgave offenses with the grace replete of every Spirit-filled believer. This transformed their relationship!

Rebecca and Tim’s renewed commitment to each other and their faith brought them closer than ever. They found strength, knowing God was at their marriage’s center. Through their shared journey, they not only reignited the flame of commitment but also relit their passion for one another.
