From whence thou has come. . . .

In today's segment, there is a message as well as a lesson that we all must learn; and that is: remembering from whence thou has come. . .

It is to me so surprising whenever I counsel married couples, or just talk to individuals one on one, how we seem to forget so easily the road that brought us to the place where we are today.
By that I mean that we have not taken into consideration the fact that God's word is true whether you accept it or not. Romans 8:28 And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.

You see my dear readers, things don't just happen. They are designed for purpose. Sound strange? Well it's not. Even in your marriages, your coming together, your meeting, and ultimately your marriage, all has purpose.
The rough times, the hard times, the good times, they all had purpose. Listen to this scripture and see if you can find your name mentioned. (of course not literally)
Ephesians 4:13 Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ:
The key word here was "all"

As you can see my friends, you are included as we all are. It is the plan of God that we understand our way of life and not just stumble through it. In our marriages, it's the same way. We shouldn't just stumble through it, but rather realize "from whence thou has come" which then allows us to see clearly the path set before us.

Attitude. . . .that's right attitude means everything. The way you approach not only situations in your marriage, but life in general, has everything to do with the outcome. Realizing what brought you to the place that you are determines the level that you will operate on when facing more difficult challenges in your marriages or otherwise.

So.....what are we saying here today?.. . . remembering where and what you have experienced helps your marriages, believe it or not. Some times it's not the big things, but the little things that we overlook or forget, that really helps us not only in our marriages, but in life period.
Humility travels much further than arrogance. It also teaches you how to get along in your marriages rather than just go along.. . .so remember from whence thou has come. . . . .the future of your marriage depends on it. It will bless you and your children's children. It's food for thought and the soul!

Have a wonderful day and always remember. . . . .YOU ARE BLESSED!
