Do you remember your wedding day? Not just the date and details but the spiritual significance. You stood before God and vowed to love your spouse for better or for worse, forever.
Several experts agree that every marriage cycles through seasons. Being able to determine what season you're in will help you prepare for the weather, sunny or stormy.
Romance - This season is full of butterflies and beauty. You or your spouse can do no wrong.
Reality - This is where you discover it is sometimes worse than better and poorer than richer. Your differences become highlighted and magnified.
Resentment - This season's forecast has arguments and frustration in store. Every problem is their fault. Bitterness builds and blinds you from seeing and sensing the spiritual. These are some cold days.
Rebuilding - This part of the cycle is where the work comes in. You've got a great foundation so rebuild. Words like, I'm sorry and I apologize are crucial for construction.
Where are you in the cycle? What season are you in? Move through the next forecast together. Choose to love and fulfill your covenant no matter the season.
