Building a Strong Marriage Takes Sweat Equity
As with any building or remodeling job, constructing a sound marriage takes hard work and effort. You may have to demolish some shoddy construction before you can build the marriage right. At times you'll feel like you've hit your thumb with a hammer and want to give up. Angry words will be spoken. You may wonder if the relationship can really work. Don't quit! Christlike marriages can be built. The New Testament book of Ephesians shows how. So, roll up your sleeves; it's time to get to work on learning how to love your spouse. Your marriage is worth the effort!
