If Your Marriage Is Failing…
Unfortunately, there are several people in my personal life
who have recently divorced or are strongly considering
the idea.
This is a devastating epidemic in our country that leaves
negative consequences affecting multiple generations.
What is always humbling is that even the healthiest
of marriages are only one wrong decision away from a
lifetime of regret.
David Jeremiah recently said “The church has done an
excellent job putting ambulances at the bottom of a cliff.
What we must start doing is putting barriers at the top
of the cliff.”
I recently had an enlightening conversation on what you
actually, base a marriage on.
Here is what I told the person you do
NOT base a marriage on…
Trust… Every healthy marriage has trust.
You just can’t base the marriage on it.
Love… Every healthy marriage has love.
You just can’t base the marriage on it.
Common Interests…
Every healthy marriage has things in common.
You just can’t base the marriage on it.
Attraction…
Every healthy marriage has attraction.
You just can’t base the marriage on it.
Companionship…
Every healthy marriage has companionship.
You just can’t base the marriage on it.
Money…
Every healthy marriage must have financial resources.
You just can’t base the marriage on it.
Kids…
Children are obviously important.
You just can’t base the marriage on them.
Once he picked himself up off the floor we
Addressed the appropriate follow-up question.
So, if you can’t base a marriage on
Trust, Love, Common Interests, Attraction,
Companionship, Money, or the Children,
What do you base a marriage on?
A Healthy Marriage Is Based Upon a Person.
A healthy marriage is based on Jesus Christ.
Marriage was instituted by God and is a picture of the
relationship He has with his bride, the church.
See (Ephesians 5:21-33).
A Healthy Marriage Based Upon a Person has these
benefits…
A reliable foundation that does not change.
A manual called the Bible that teaches you how a
marriage works.
A model of sacrificial love.
A model of commitment.
A healthy way to resolve conflict.
A reliable counselor who brings reconciliation.
A financial coach who helps you avoid the pressure of
debt.
A generous benefactor who gives you perfect gifts and
meets all your needs.
A friend who sticks closer than a brother.
You understand the value of purity.
The most important leadership roles I have is that of
husband and father.
The reason is because each day I set precedent and
Send my family forward to a time we cannot see.
Tell me your thoughts on what you think a marriage
should be based on.

Greater than ever before.”

President Trump unlike many politicians
Followed through on his promises
To the American people.
He made us Strong again.
He made us Safe again.
He made America Great again.
He is pro-life. He is pro-business.
He will do all he can to stop illegal aliens
From entering our beloved Country.
God is not through with Donald John Trump
He spared his life on July 13th, 2024.
He is not a perfect man, he has his flaws
Like all of us.
He loves this country and wants what is
Best for it.
I am proud to support him for the
Office of President of the United States of America.
