Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our troubles so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves have received from God.⁠ 2 Corinthians 1:3-4⁠ ⁠ ⁠ The truth of this verse is what guided us to share our story. We openly share about the breakdown of our marriage and how God healed it. ⁠ ⁠ Telling our story is how we continuously thank God for what He did for us. We wouldn't be married if Jesus didn't take his rightful place at the center of our marriage.⁠ ⁠ We want everyone to know that a Gospel-centered marriage thrives in a way that a godless marriage can never reach.⁠ ⁠ We tell our story not to boast or gain fame. We tell it because that is what God wants us to do. He tells us so in this verse above. ⁠ ⁠ When God comforts us, He then calls us to comfort others with the unique love He shared with us. It's a biblical 'pay it forward' kind of thing.⁠ ⁠ If we don't tell our stories, we keep that unique love to ourselves. ⁠ ⁠ It doesn't mean you have to share your intimate details with the entire world. Not everyone is called to be so public. However, there are people within your circle of influence who may deeply benefit from knowing your story and receiving God's love from you.⁠ ⁠ It looks different for each of us, but God calls each of us to share our story...which is really HIS story.⁠ ⁠ To God be the glory!⁠ #ourstory #hisstory

Will you forgive me?⁠ ⁠ These can be some of the most difficult words to share with another person. ⁠ ⁠ They are also some of the most humbling words we can speak.⁠ ⁠ God calls us to be forgiving. He also calls us to admit to our poor choices, failures, and mistakes. ⁠ ⁠ A great place to practice this biblical principle is within the context of marriage. ⁠ ⁠ Own it. Ask for forgiveness. Be forgiving. ⁠ ⁠ Then, watch how God uses your obedience to bless you and those around you.

Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak, and slow to become angry. ⁠ James 1:19⁠ ⁠ ⁠ Oh boy, this one is hard. It says 'everyone.' So, I guess that means us. Eek.⁠ ⁠ Which of these is hardest for you??⁠ ⁠ ❔Quick to listen⁠ ⁠ ❔Slow to speak⁠ ⁠ ❔Slow to become angry⁠ ⁠ ❔All of the above ⁠ ⁠ Let us know. We will be praying for ALL of us to have God's strength to live out this verse in our marriages.⁠ ⁠
