A marriage’s success depends on more than finding the right person—it depends on being the right person. Nothing just happens—including a great marriage and family life. A good marriage takes hard work. And an abundance of patience, commitment, determination, and time!

RESPOND
Lord, thank You for my marriage. Please help both of us to be committed to making our marriage healthy and growing in You. Amen.
