Ecclesiastes 4:12 Though one may be overpowered, two can defend themselves. A cord of three strands is not quickly broken.

Jesus Christ must be Lord in order for success to be established and maintained in marriage. If Jesus Christ is not at the helm, a marriage would consist of two people attempting to live life together without an ever-present help.

That ever-present help is the Holy Spirit. Jesus Christ gave us the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit will direct and guide each of us within our marriage. He will inform us how to love our spouse, when/how to hold our spouse, when/how to complement our spouse, and when/how to give to our spouse.

Let’s trump the negative statistics and allow success, through Jesus Christ, to be a part of our marriages.
