HEALING FOR YOUR MARRIAGE

Marriage is like a building,it is meant to be built with a strong and solid foundation.

Jesus is the solid Rock;the Rock of Ages,the Rock that never fails.Any man and any home without Christ Jesus experience crises.When you have Jesus,you have love,joy, peace,gentleness,long suffering,temperance(self control),faith and grace which are all bedrock for a blissful and a happy marriage.

God has a foundation on which He builds marriage and that foundation is love.This refers to the agape kind of love and not the sensual and emotional kind of love.This is the love that gives and gives and gives again and again.The sacrificial type of love.
