Marriage in Today's World

The marriage relationship is the greatest human display of God's love. And many people are watching us: our spouse, our kids, our friends, indeed an entire world desperate to discover a woman who loves with such intensity that it's courageous. In her, they see Jesus.

"We love because he first loved us" (1 John 4:19). Remember Jesus loved us first. He is teaching us to do the same, beginning with our husbands. I am convinced this is the way of the Lord.

--Lynn Donovan & Dineen Miller, in Winning Him Without Words

In a world where fewer and fewer people are living according to God's plan, a good marriage is truly a rarity. A successful marriage is nothing short of a miracle.

May God grant us wives the strength to love our husbands with an unconditional love, and may our commitment to our marriage be unwavering.

Father God, be glorified in our marriage!
