OK – this is a short article – more like a bullet point – but I had to post something on this that I just heard and thought – yep – that’s where most of us are going wrong!

Most people are doing the former, putting more effort into preparing their Facebook page for their wedding photos and their footballer husband or trophy wife so the world can see how great they did. Let alone getting the invites ready for 400 guests… 398 of which they’ve never met.

So in the end what are you doing when it comes to preparing for a real Christian and godly marriage? Preparing for a fantastic wedding, or preparing your heart and mind for being a great husband or wife.

Yep – contrary to what the world teaches us (and as people used to know back in the day – even non-Christians) it’s not what you can GET from the marriage – it’s what you can GIVE to your partner and your marriage! With that you-first mindset you can’t fail. Jesus proved it!
