Your marriage deserves the best of you, your time, your energy, and your focus. How do I do that? You have to keep your marriage first-this means that you protect the time for your marriage. Give it ALL of you! It deserves all of you. Your marriage has to last for the rest of your life, so you need to do what is necessary to ensure that your spouse knows that she/he is first right after God. Your time is valuable to your mate. Do you remember when you were in love with your mate? You could not wait until you were in her presence again. Your workday was too long. Traffic was too much. All you wanted to do was see your mate. Now you are married, but you are not in a hurry to get home. You are not thinking of her as much. Your dialogue and communication are severely lower, strained and critically different.You are on the same team!Keep your jersey on and keep that team together!
