A strong marriage is the result of hard work; first in your pursuit of Christ, then in pursuit of your spouse. Every spouse is different, and we all have our own personality, family of origin, and emotional baggage. Marriage is not a static state, where each spouse stays exactly the same as they were the day of the wedding. This means that it takes investment to maintain and grow your relationship. As circumstances and seasons change, you can learn how to serve your spouse in ways that best meet their needs in a way that glorifies God, the creator of marriage.
