We have been doing a marriage series at Church. It is called Making Love Last. They play this cute little video each week before the service and it is hilarious. You should watch it.
How do you make love last?
Most people think that love should come naturally. That you don’t have to work at it. It would be like someone saying, “Don’t you think that photography should come naturally? That you just pick up a camera and take amazing photos.” No, it comes with work and practice. That is how love works. You have to work to make love last. It does not come easy or naturally.Even if you think you are compatible with your spouse, you really are not. You and your spouse is actually spiritually broken by Satan, they are self-centered. {We will go more into this in Part 2.} I came to an epiphany about being self-centered in Part 2. I can not wait to share this part.
Basically the first week the pastor talked about the “big secret” to making love last. You can listen to the full sermon here. It comes from Ephesians 5:32.
This starts to unwrap the mystery of marriage. The “big secret” is to love your husband/wife as Jesus loved the church. What exactly does that mean?
It seizes to be less about what I want/need and becomes more of what Kenny wants/needs. Do for your spouse what Jesus did for you and the rest will come. Wow is all I can say.
Will you continue this series with me and make your love last?
