To provide companionship ( Genesis 2:18)
To reproduce (Genesis 1:28)
To promote sexual purity (Proverbs 5:15)
To provide romance (Genesis 5:16-19)
To demonstrate and pattern Christ’s love for the Church (Ephesians 5:22-27)

To provide help when fulfilling God's plan in your life ( Genesis 2:18)
Marriage is the most glorious of covenants under our covenant with God through Jesus Christ, this week think about the list above and ask God what you can do to further fulfill and promote God's original intent for marriage in your life. Maybe you need to spend more time alone with your spouse--companionship and romance. How about sexual purity. I heard a preacher say once if you have a lust problem--tell your spouse. For others some wives and husbands just need to realize the importance of intimacy inside of marriage. Sex is IMPORTANT in a marriage just like WORSHIP is important to God.It's not the most important thing but being intimate more frequently helps to keep the atmosphere in our homes and our attitudes moving and flowing towards love and respect.
How about reaching out to others or mentoring other couples in their marriages. How about adopting a single parent family and begin to invest in them spiritually, financially, mentally, etc...
Remember this important fact Marriage IS Ministry and it's one that God wants to use to reach out to help others...
Have a great week ahead Visitors, FB & Twitter couples & make each moment you have with your spouse special!
MARRIAGE and YOUR LIFE
