Marriage is hard, sometimes unrelenting. Its that 5th grade bully that slams your head into a locker once a week and pulls your pants down in gym. It tests every limit we have, sadness, happiness, anger, fear, jealousy, joy and forgiveness. We have to say how far am i really willing to go to make our marriage work? If the answer is anything but as far as it takes then we have given up. Ive been there, I get it. Its okay to feel like you dont have all the answers, in my marriage 90% of our problems are solved with honesty and a cheeseburger (or potato salad). Can I let go of the little things and focus on the big things? How she still makes my stomach do a back flip when she walks in a room, how her smile absolutely melts my heart and makes my knees weak. Its what I fell in love with first. Who she is, not what she will or wont do for me and my selfish personality. Sometimes you have to get back to where it started to see where it went wrong. Just look at her and say Ill go as far as Ill takes I know this is is cheesy and used over and over but maybe read it differently this time, backwards, line by line, phrase by phrase. Look up the word boast. Get back to where it all started. 1 Corinthians 13:4-7 4 Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant 5 or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; 6 it does not rejoice at wrongdoing, but rejoices with the truth. 7 Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.
