The love you have for God will be the pacesetter of the love you have for your husband. Your relationship with your husband depends upon your relationship with God. Ask God to give you His love for your husband. It won t be easy to change, but if you ask Him for help, He will be your strength and enabler. He will guide you, and He will help you redeem that precious time that has eroded through the year.

That I Might Not Be Ashamed. Take a minute to think about it. This chapter will give guidelines and encouragement as we daily face challenges and opportunities in our marriages.
