I've got marriage things going on in my mind. Not sure why, but seems to be weighing heavy. I know that God intended marriage to be the joining of two people. The bible says "Therefore a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife and they shall become one flesh." Gen 2:24 and "So then, they are no longer two but one flesh. Therefore what God has joined together, let no man separate." Matt 19:6 I also know my marriage vows said "In good times and bad, until death do us part".....I also know (in my head) that the order of things should go God first, than my husband, than my child. Like I said I know this all
in my head, but I have so much trouble applying this in real life. It seems I
NEVER get the order right. I'd like to work really hard on getting that order right in my life this year. This may be hard for my kiddo to deal with because more often than not I put her before everything. There will be times that I will fail miserably trying to get this right, but I'll just have to pick myself up, dust myself off, and keep plugging away at it. I love my husband, but I know in my years of marriage I have not always been the best wife and friend to him. So babe, I pledge to work on that. I have no doubt that we're committed to each other. We wouldn't have made it through 20+ years together. So be praying for me and my journey to make this right this coming year, I'll need it!
