Every marriage faces the temptation to give up—to neglect, avoid, or let busyness take over. But God calls us to protect our marriages from drift and distraction by grounding them in the love we’ve already received from Him. Cherishing is not passive—it’s a decision. It’s choosing what kind of marriage you want and pursuing it with Christ at the center. When we live from His love, we find strength to keep cherishing, even when it’s hard.
