A Good Marriage Starts in Your Mind

Everyone wants a good marriage.

There are lists of suggestions and books galore to encourage us in things we can *do* to gain better marriages.

However, I want to point out…

A good marriage really starts in your mind.

How do you think of your husband?
How are you thinking about him right now?

• Is he your friend or foe?
• Is he your teammate?
• Do you see all of the *good* he does for you or are you focusing on the *bad* things?
• Do you hold him in high esteem?
• Would you do anything for him today?

Do you remember when you were dating your husband?

Those were the days when you wanted to spend as much time as you could with him.

Those were the days when you wrote him love letters, bought him gifts, and called him frequently.

Those were the days when you pursued him with your whole heart.

Those were the days when you forgave him easily and moved forward with a dream-filled heart.

How are you thinking about your husband today?

Your thoughts have the power
to make or break your marriage.

Refresh your vision for your marriage and renew your mind with regard to your husband.

Think of him as your lover, the one you desire.
Think of him as your best friend.
Think of him as the one with whom you want to be the most.
Think of him as your other half, the one who completes you.
Think of him as the most important person in the world.

Think great things, and then act upon those great thoughts.
