Marriage Myths (4)

May... God... give you a spirit of unity.
Romans 15:5

"Nothing can fix our relationship." A woman asked her girl friend,
"How come you're wearing your wedding ring on the wrong finger?"
She replied,
"Because I married the wrong man!"
Sound familiar?
The biggest mistake you can make is calling it quits because you think you married the wrong person, and that nothing short of a miracle can save your marriage.
The good news today is... God is still in the miracle business! With Him "nothing is impossible" (Luke 1:37 ).
It's when problems seem insurmountable that God comes through for you. Jeremiah said, "Lord, you... made the heavens and the earth by your great power... Nothing is too hard for you" (Jeremiah 32:17 ).
The trouble is, too many of us live in the realm of the probable, thinking things probably won't get better... that we'll probably always have money issues... or we'll probably get divorced. Instead, we should be living in the realm of the possible. Paul says, "Faith... is the confident assurance that what we hope for is going to happen... the evidence of things we cannot yet see"(Hebrews 11:1 ).

The Bible says God's plans for you "are for good and not for disaster,to give you a future and a hope" (Jeremiah 29:11 ).
If you're feeling discouraged about your relationship, try fixing your thoughts on what God can do.
The Bible says that when you look earnestly for Him you'll find Him (2Chronicles 15:2) .
He's not some distant deity who's disconnected from the challenges of your everyday life. No, He wants to have an intimate relationship with you; to use His power to transform your marriage into something lasting and wonderful.
