You Can Change and So Can Your Marriage

In order to change, you need to follow the advice seen in these verses. See how these worldly ambitions have thrust your judgment aside and distorted your ability to carry out right priorities. You think it is important but just do not carry it out. This reveals a different set of values and priorities at work.These must be discovered, analyzed, confessed, rejected and repented of.

you can change too!

At the same time you will need to adopt a new God-given desire to please Him and live rightly. It is on top of these newer and godly aspirations that you live out your life. Only then can you recognize what the right priorities are and carry them out through the power of His grace.

What we feel is important is fine. But we want to expand and shape our own thinking and hopes by what God has said to be important. Remember God has the perfect design and leads us into ‘green pastures,’ that is, wonderful marriages.
