Take Time to be Married

Today in our segment we deal with our marital habitat. It is commonly known as our everyday life of a marriage, however, there are certain aspects that we should allow ourselves to examine more closely. Let's take a closer look.

Interestingly enough, we fill our schedules with what we call our routine. Getting up, going to work, shopping, washing the car, going to the bank, and on and on. These routines are piled into our everyday life; So much so, until by the end of the day there is nothing left of our time to " be married"

I'm sure you're saying, what does he mean by that! Well, if the truth be told, we really and rarely ever take the time out of our schedules, just to be married. Still confused? Let's look at the Holy scriptures for a minute: 1 Corinthians 7:3 Let the husband render unto the wife due benevolence: and likewise also the wife unto the husband. What does it mean, simply this: taking the time from each other's schedules just to be together. The word in this scenario is called: Fellowship!

Did you know that the same thing that it takes to begin a married life, is the same things necessary to maintain it. That's right, the same swoosing, love, affection, sharing, and intimacy should be a part of our schedule. Now that's called: Communication!

So many times in our marriages, we take for granted the little things that in reality are the big things, yes the Foundational things, if you will, that are the main ingredient of our relationship. Don't fool yourselves, it's necessary, and it's your responsibility to make sure your marriage is fertilized with these things.

Here is what God says to you, the married: 1 Corinthians 7:5 Defraud ye not one the other, except it be with consent for a time, that ye may give yourselves to fasting and prayer; and come together again, that Satan tempt you not for your incontinency (a sex drive), you see, without that fellowship and communication, you could loose the common interest for each other. What's common interest ?. . . .becoming One! It's so important my dear readers.

Why not take some time out for each other. . . .have you loved your spouse today?. . . . in other words, take time to be married. . . . .after all, it's not just for today, it's for the rest of your life.

I just know you're Blessed!
