This blog completes the series on avoiding divorce by choosing reconciliation. It presented many small practical ways to improve your relationship with your spouse. I implore you to try them no matter how complicated your marriage is. It is God who heals your marriage through your small efforts just like God healed Naaman through his simple efforts in 2 Kings.
Naaman wanted to be cured of his leprosy. Elisha advised him to wash 7 times in the Jordan. Naaman dismissed the idea because of its simplicity, but his servants convinced him to try it anyway. After following Elisha's advice, his leprosy was healed. The Jordan didn't heal Naaman; God healed Naaman through his simple efforts. (See 2 Kings 5: 1-14.)
A successful marriage is an imperfect marriage with lots of room for God to fill the crevices of our hearts. It is one in which two people are free to give and accept love from one another even in their brokenness. Let this song "Broken Together" by Casting Crowns speak to your heart about your marriage by clicking here: http://youtu.be/T7njqs_8RcU.
Dear Lord, Heal our marriages. Help us to embrace imperfect marriages so that we will always be filling up our needs by Your Holy Spirit. Thank You that You understand us and our situation so completely and have numbered the hairs on our heads. In Christ's Name, Amen.
