Have you had it with your marriage? You’re just so done with trying and hoping? Time to give up and just let it die? Maybe this story and remembering how big God is will be just what you need.
Game Plan:
“Anyone who belongs to Christ has become a new person. The old life is gone; a new life has begun! And all of this is a gift from God, who brought us back to Himself through Christ. And God has given us this task of reconciling people to Him. For God was in Christ, reconciling the world to Himself, no longer counting people’s sins against them. And He gave us this wonderful message of reconciliation. So we are Christ’s ambassadors; God is making His appeal through us. We speak for Christ when we plead, “Come back to God!” 2 Corinthians 5:17-20 NLT
Time Out:
When people betray us, the pain is like a fire in our gut. When we are unfaithful in our marriage, the guilt and the consequences are huge mountains. We ask, “Will these painful consequences ever end?” “Will my spouse ever quit throwing this in my face?” “Are trust and love dead forever?”
Are you bitter or hopeless? Does the pain and discouragement still overwhelm or dominate you? If so…maybe your only medicine is God. Only He is bigger than any circumstance, able to forgive any sin, able to raise His Son from the dead.
Go Deep:
Do you believe God is real? Do you believe He created the world? Do you believe He raised Jesus from the dead? So why don’t you believe He can forgive you? Why don’t you believe His love is enough for you to forgive your spouse? Why don’t you believe He can raise your marriage from the dead and heal you both?
