Weekend To Remember
Sunday at church, Dan made a very interesting and true coment during his sermon (did I say he is a Pastor?- well, he is). He was talking about how to have a good relationship. He mentioned the fact that all married coupel have in common the fact that they all went through some kind of marriage ceremony, all said vows to each other in front of witnesses, and all made the commitment to stand by each other in better and worse, sickness and health. Yet if you take a group of married couples, there will be all degrees of good or bad marriages.
Yes, we all did the same thing to get married, yes we all made vows and had good intentions. Why are there so many differences when we all started out in the same way?
The answer is that what we do to make it continuously better or worse is the key.
What comes after the ceremony, and in the daily life together? Do we work together to make it wonderful- keeping a continuous hand on problems and addressing them before they get out of hand>
Or do we assume that we are ok, ignoring possible warning signs and thinking- “Oh, that could never happen to us”?
It is a good idea to evaluate where we are as a couple, and how we got here. What have we done that makes us a good thing, and what should we stop doing that can potentially make us a problem thing?
How can we work together to make our marriage the best?
I would strongly recommend a Marriage Conference, such as Family Life’s Weekend To Remember. It is good for great marriages and for troubled marriages.
