The End Results. . . . .


John 8:31 Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed; which is why today's segment is so important to your marriages.
As we have journeyed through life, we all have goals and dreams that sooner or later we desire that those things would come to pass; and by reason of health and strength if we continue, we achieve the "end results".
In marriage, it is the same way. Our "end results" depend solely on our willingness to continue down the path that God has set for us. The end results being. . . .happiness, health, healing, deliverance, joy, peace, contentment, love, and most of all the salvation of our souls.
The problem is simply this: many marriages have failed to continue in the instruction of God's word as the above scripture notes. Contrary to popular belief, marriage is a spiritual thing. Not a physical thing, not a sex thing, not a racial thing . . . . . .it's all spiritual! . . .and when you remove the spirituality from it, the "end results". . . . .divorce.
Divorce today is at an all time high, especially in the "church". Why? Most definitely because those marriages have taken God out of the equation. Categorically, most people place marriage in the "do want I want" column, but not so. Marriage is spiritual!
Call me a religious fanatic, holy roller, or even to mind my own business, but it still doesn't change the fact that marriage is spiritual; and the end results proves it!
You see my dear readers, people act on what they tend to believe, but the clause there is this:
you become what you believe, right or wrong! Proverbs 23:7 For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he: so as you can see, it is so important to find out the truth in life, especially when it pertains to marriage. Can't you see, that it's the "end results" that really count. Luke 14:28 ) For which of you, intending to build a tower, sitteth not down first, and counteth the cost, whether he have sufficient to finish it? How important that is.
Here's today's thought: Take your marriage serious, count up the cost. Take time to see what God says in his word concerning your marriage. (trust me, it's in there). Then continue in the things that you know are right based on what you have researched to find true, and afterwards, you will see that the proof is in the pudding; it will show you the "end results".
Let's all decide today, to be Blessed!
