Jason and Tori Benham provide a series of practical, Bible-based principles to help couples experience stronger, healthier and more godly marriages. They describe better ways to handle conflict, deal with expectations, and develop a “team” mindset with your spouse.
Hello, friend. I hope you’re well today.
The last few episodes, we’ve seen Joshua and the Israelites face one obstacle after another. Well this week is a biggie – crossing the Jordan River. But this story isn’t just about getting from one side of a river to the other. It’s about how God delivers us from what stands between us and him.
Healthy marriages have a sense of tenderness and honesty and ongoing communication. The same is true in our relationship with God. Sometimes we go to him with our joys, sometimes our hurts, but we always go. And as we go, the more we go, the more we become like him. Paul says we’re being changed from “glory to glory.”
People who live long lives together eventually begin to sound alike, to talk alike, even think alike. As we walk with God, we take on his thoughts, his principles, his attitudes. We take on his heart.
And just as in marriage, communion with God is no burden. Indeed, it’s a delight. The Psalmist says, “How lovely is your dwelling place, O Lord Almighty! My soul yearns, even faints, for the courts of the Lord; my heart and my flesh cry out for the living God” (Psalm 84:1-2 NIV). Nothing—nothing—compares with it!
