1. Be faithful to each other - the rewards are beyond measure.

 

 

2. Do not go to bed with an argument lift unsettled. Settle it

 

even if you have to stay up all night.

 

 

3. Do not argue about more than one thing at a time. Do not

 

bring up what is past.

 

 

4. Share porblems - workloads, etc. "60/60" so that nothing

 

falls through the grates.

 

 

5. Be each other's best friend.

 

 

6. Communicate- communicate- communicate.

attention.

 

 

8. Only shout when the house is on fire.

alone.

subject to the overall diretion of the marriage partners.

 

 

11. Make time for each other. Never be too busy to set aside

 

some quality time for each other.

 

 

12. Have chidren when you want them. Do not have them to

 

hold a marriage together. It is hard enough being a child

has a mother.

 

 

14. It is important that you both encourage each other to reach

 

his/her potential.

but be consistent with your spouse. Adopt the lowest

agreement even if you have to sleep on the question before

 

reaching consensus.

is Jesus the Christ.

for the love that first brought you together and

 

notan end in themselve.

 

 

19. No one in this worl is worthy of more repect than

 

the person who married you.

 

 

20. Ast yourself at the end of each day, if I asked her/him

 

to marry me now, would she/he say yes?

 

 

21. To the outward word each of you has the authority to

 

speak for and bind your marriage partnership:

 

use hat authority carefully.

 

 

22. Have children that you may better understand your

 

place in God's creation.
