FOR BETTER FOR WORSE FOR GOOD

 FOR BETTER FOR WORSE FOR GOOD

Your spouse isn't in your life simply to give you blissful days. He or she is in also to improve your character by stretching it to limits no one else can. 

Just like change of lesson at school, couples regularly give each other bad days without even intending to. Those are all providential too.

That is why every marriage looks nicer from the outside, at least soon as the honeymoon is over.

Over time, after you've learnt to trust better and let some things go, you'll understand that you've been forged for greater things. 

During the 'difficult lesson' periods, consider first which aspects of your own character is being dealt with, and try and make amends, otherwise, you'll have to do remedials several times over. 

You focus also on God's overall goodness to you, and make room to thank Him. Don't let your grumbling steal His honor and praise. He is the one refining us, and though He passes us through fire, He is with us to make the refining process bearable.

"For how do you know, O wife, whether you will save your husband? Or how do you know, O husband, whether you will save your wife?"

I Corinthians 7:16 NKJV

Be assured as follows:

"And, after you have suffered for a little while, the God of all grace who called you to his eternal glory in Christ will himself restore, confirm, strengthen, and establish you."

1 Peter 5:10 NET
