RE: Guard Your Heart, Do Not Follow It - Protecting Your Marriage on Social Media - Soulful Sunday by A Panama Mama

Thank you for sharing! This was an excellent article and very true. I have seen this type of thing occur on more than one occasion. While neither of those got serious to the point of breaking up or divorce, they still caused momentary turbulence in the relationships and damaged the trust that was once there.

Remembering to keep Christ at the center of your relationship is key (and something I am guilty of not always doing myself). I would like to add the following verse as well


Ecclesiastes 4:9-12 states,

Two are better than one,
because they have a good return for their labor:
If either of them falls down,
one can help the other up.
But pity anyone who falls
and has no one to help them up.
Also, if two lie down together, they will keep warm.
But how can one keep warm alone?
Though one may be overpowered,
two can defend themselves.
A cord of three strands is not quickly broken.


Basically, you and your spouse should support one another and defend one another. By adding the 3rd cord, Christ, you will not be quickly broken, but remain strong in your relationship and support for one another.

Sort:  

Thanks for the additional verses! I agree that Christ must be the center in order to make life and marriage work. :) So glad that Jesus is there to hold us together if we both are holding on to him.
