Real Love Gestures vs. Social Media Pressure

Is social media causing you to wonder if your marriage is solid? Are you comparing your relationship to what you see on tiktok? This article is for you

You see the reels, TikTok videos, and Facebook montages about men and women who make the effort. The effort, as defined by the video, is a large display of affection that costs hundreds of dollars. Usually, these videos are followed up with the phrase “if he or she wanted to, they would”. This can be unrealistic for a variety of reasons and ultimately shames couples who cannot commit to large…

The Covenant of Marriage: A Christian Perspective on Sustaining Lifelong Love

In the Christian faith, marriage isn't just a legal or social arrangement but a holy covenant that reflects the spiritual union between Christ and the Church. It is a God-ordained institution designed for mutual growth, love, and support. So, how does one navigate the intricacies of marital life while keeping Christ at the center? Let's delve into some valuable Christian-based marriage advice that aims to uphold the sanctity and joy of this divine partnership.

Forge a Strong Spiritual Bond

Shared Spiritual Goals: Working towards common spiritual objectives, like mission work or raising children in the faith, can help focus your marriage on higher purposes.

Daily Devotionals: Spending time together in God’s Word not only nourishes your individual spirits but also fortifies the spiritual foundation of your marriage.

The Language of Love and Respect

Appreciate Individual Love Languages: While the Bible commands us to love unconditionally, understanding each other’s love languages can help make that love tangible.

Respect as a Two-Way Street: In Ephesians 5:33, husbands are called to love their wives, and wives are told to respect their husbands. Both love and respect should be mutual to foster a harmonious relationship.

Money Matters: Stewardship and Generosity

Joint Financial Decisions: Proverbs 21:5 advises diligent planning and hard work lead to prosperity. Jointly planning your finances can bring about unity and growth.

Open-handed Living: Reflecting God’s generosity in your financial decisions can deepen your trust in Him and each other.

Emotional and Physical Intimacy

Cultivate Emotional Intimacy: Vulnerability can be challenging but is essential for emotional closeness. James 5:16 encourages us to confess our faults to one another to foster a healing environment.

Celebrate Physical Intimacy: The Song of Solomon celebrates sexual love within marriage. This intimacy is God’s gift and should be enjoyed respectfully and lovingly within the bounds of marriage.

Navigating Challenges Through Forgiveness and Humility

Be Quick to Forgive: Christ’s parable of the unforgiving servant in Matthew 18:21-35 is a strong reminder to forgive as we have been forgiven by God.

Embrace Humility: Philippians 2:3-4 advises us to consider others better than ourselves. In marriage, this means putting your spouse's needs above your own.

Effective Communication: More Than Words

Non-Verbal Cues: Paying attention to body language and tone can often tell you more than words can.

Speak Softly: Proverbs 15:1 says, "A gentle answer turns away wrath." Choose your words carefully, especially in heated moments, to maintain peace.

Conclusion

Marriage is a divine covenant that requires constant effort, eternal love, and Christ-like humility. It’s a journey that promises great joy but also inevitable challenges. By relying on scriptural principles and God's grace, you can build a strong, fulfilling marriage that not only brings you and your spouse happiness but also honors the One who brought you together.

May your marriage be a beautiful testimony of God’s enduring love and faithfulness. Amen.

Marriage is a sacrament of God. 

Marriage is not just a beautiful union between two people; it is a sacred sacrament ordained by God Himself. 🌟 In many faiths and traditions, marriage is viewed as a holy covenant—a divine partnership that transcends the earthly bonds of love and companionship.

The Divine Design ✨💑

From the very beginning, God established marriage as a foundational part of life. In the Bible, we read that God created man and woman in His image and brought them together as one flesh (Genesis 2:24). This union is more than a social or legal contract—it’s a divine design. 💞

In this sacred bond, the love between a husband and wife mirrors the love of God for humanity. ❤️ Just as God’s love is unconditional, selfless, and eternal, so too is the love in a marriage meant to reflect these holy virtues. 🕊️

A Covenant, Not a Contract 🤝🙏

Marriage is often misunderstood as merely a contract between two individuals. But in reality, it’s a  *covenant*. 💍 Unlike a contract that can be broken when terms aren't met, a covenant is a sacred, unbreakable promise—binding not only the couple but also involving God as the central figure in their relationship.

This is why marriage is a sacrament: a visible sign of God’s grace. 🌿 It’s a spiritual commitment that goes beyond physical attraction or emotional connection. It is a journey of faith, trust, and love that two people undertake together, with God as their guide. 🛤️🙏

The Role of Faith in Marriage ✝️💒

Faith plays a crucial role in sustaining a marriage. When life’s challenges come—whether it’s financial troubles, health issues, or differences in personality—faith acts as an anchor. 🛳️ With God at the centre, couples can weather any storm, knowing that their bond is blessed by a higher power. 

In the sacrament of marriage, prayer becomes a powerful tool. Couples who pray together invite God’s grace into their lives, allowing Him to shape and mold their relationship according to His will. 🙏✨

A Reflection of God’s Love 💖🌟

One of the most beautiful aspects of marriage as a sacrament is that it reflects the love between Christ and the Church. In Ephesians 5:25, husbands are called to love their wives just as Christ loved the Church and gave Himself up for her. 🕊️💒

This sacrificial love is at the heart of marriage. It’s about putting the other person first, being patient, forgiving, and always striving to grow together in God’s love.

Marriage isn’t always easy. There will be ups and downs, moments of joy and moments of struggle. But with God as the foundation, love becomes enduring and resilient. 💪💞

Marriage is between a man and a woman only.👩‍❤️‍👨

Marriage between a man and a woman was instituted by God with Adam and Eve. Genesis 2:24 states: “Therefore a man leaves his father and his mother and cleaves to his wife, and they become one flesh.”

In Matthew 19:4-5, Jesus reaffirms this: “He answered, ‘Have you not read that he who made them from the beginning made them male and female,’ and said, ‘For this reason, a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and the two shall become one’?”

Marriage as a Blessing 🌺🙏

Marriage, as a sacrament of God, is a profound and beautiful blessing. 💫 It is a sacred path that two people walk together, hand in hand, with God leading the way. It is a reflection of His love, grace, and divine purpose for humanity. And when rooted in faith, marriage becomes a lifelong journey of love, growth, and spiritual unity. 🌿💒💍

Let us honour and cherish the gift of marriage, remembering that it is not just a human institution but a holy sacrament, ordained and blessed by God. 🌟🙏

May God bless all marriages with His eternal love and grace. Amen! ✨💖

7 Biblical Ways to Resolve Conflict in Marriage: Embrace Hope

Are you experiencing marital conflict? Here are 7 biblical ways to resolve conflict, improve communication, and establish a durable, Christ-centered marriage.

[riversoflivingwater]

Jehovah El Roi “The God who sees.”

He came and is coming again and again!

“Unto You I lift up my eyes, O You who dwell in the heavens.” (Psalm 123:1)

And they were telling your situation is hopeless. When your walls turned into ruins and the foundation felt shaking. When the roof cracked and thousands of heavy waters fell on it tearing down and swiping away the last tile. With your hands stretched out in prayer, you were trying to stop those waters.

Standing firm on your feet, you saw that happening to your house. The waters flushed it all away, and they passed you by, scattering and piling all the memories into an enormous ball. Your feet remained dry. You kept standing on your solid ground. None of those waters touched you but the rains of regret, hopelessness, loss and relief rolling down your face. And now again you are here, standing on your rock, alone and broken amidst your ruins.

You were thinking you lost it all, but all you lost were the illusions you were being fed with by the deceptive human nature. That place you had never belonged to. That dry garden you wanted to flourish. You had been generously scattering your pearls, the seeds that were trampled upon without regret by those you had been praying for. Watering that garden with your tears in prayer, often unseen and disregarded.

But the One above saw everything… “You have taken account of my miseries; Put my tears in Your bottle. Are they not in Your book?” (Psalm 56:8)

This is a the story of bitter betrayal, abandonment and divorce. And the only question you have is “why?”

“Because my love for you is jealous. Because you are bought with a price. Because you are My daughter. Because you are precious to Me. Because I saw it all and My heart grieved. Because I know what you deserve even if you don’t. Because My plans for you are greater, and only I know them. Because I want to prosper you and not to harm you, to give you My expected end”.

This message will find you, and it has already done if you hear it now: “No, you are not hopeless and alone, because you have been standing on the Rock.”

And you will hear that voice. You will open your wings again and soar in your freedom renewed and whole. You are free because you are called to freedom in Christ! Your hope was born with Jesus. You found your hope the moment you found Him. The One, who will never leave you, nor forsake you. Him, who will never hurt you, nor denounce you. Who loves you unconditionally. No matter what.

“Let your conduct be without covetousness; be content with such things as you have. For He Himself has said, “I will never leave you nor forsake you.” 6 So we may boldly say: “The LORD is my helper; I will not fear. What can man do to me?” (Hebrews 13:5-6)

If your hope is Jesus, you have hope even beyond your last day on this earth: the only true Hope that will never leave you ashamed.

Run to your fortress all wounded, ashamed and desolate. Hide in it and find your Lord there; cleave to your God. Submit to Him with all your heart, your mind, and your soul. He WILL exalt you in the due time for this is His will expressed in His promise. Rest in your Lord and He will give you that peace that surpasses all understanding. The world will never figure out how. How you could make it through so strong and lifted up. And your answer to them will be: “It’s not because I am, but because He IS!”

He will shine His glory upon you and make you radiant again; and they will see the Lord and acknowledge His mighty presence. God never forsakes His own.

“For My own sake, for My own sake, I will do it;For how should My name be profaned? And I will not give My glory to another.” (Isaiah 48:11)

Take courage. The new day is shining through. Your Light is here and now, for where He is there is darkness no more! Jesus came to save and is coming again and again!
