Proverbs 29:18
"Where there is no vision, the people perish"
Am I willing to change?
To make our marriage work, we both were willing to change. It was getting there that was the problem. Our mind set had to become it wasn't about us, but about God. Letting God have our marriage and taking full control.
Matthew 18:3
And he said " I tell you the truth, unless you change and become like little children you will never enter the kingdom of heaven."
So powerful, but isn't all of God's words. We had to change, I had to change and become like a child. I prayed please God allow me to climb up into your lap and you hold me. Teach me your ways and not those of mine. I had to learn to let go of the past.
1 Corinthians 13:5
"(Love) keeps no record of wrongs."
For a time I was keeping all the records, memories whatever to throw back up. How wrong was that? You can't change the past, but you can give the past to God and He will make it right. To love as Jesus loves His church. Something else that I had to learn. Think of all the times that we as children of God have disappointed Him. He still loves us as a father or mother love their children.
John 13:34-35
"A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another. By this all men will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another."
You can't pick and choose who to love, the word clearly states LOVE ONE ANOTHER! Yes it's hard sometimes to love people especially when they have hurt you. No better way to show God's love than to love them no matter the cost.
