Marrying a Child Adopted by God

H. Norman Wright

You are marrying an adopted child. Surprised? Well, it is true. When you or your partner invited Jesus Christ into your lives you were adopted into God’s family. That is what John was writing about in today’s verse.

Our understanding of who God is and how He wants to bless our lives is enriched when we realize He is committed to performing good in our lives.

The Wonder of Being Chosen by God

H. Norman Wright

One of the delights of marrying is to realize that someone chose you. You are so desired and special that someone wants to spend the rest of his or her life with you! Someone else chose you a long time ago—God. You were chosen by God.

Will you use time in a way that will bless your marriage? For example, will you thank God for His daily gift of time to you as man and wife?

The Value of Time in Marriage

H. Norman Wright

Time is a precious commodity for all of us. Too often, however, we take the time spent with our partners for granted.“It’s about time.” “Have a good time.” What time is it?” Where did time go?” These and other phrases are used again and again in our everyday conversations.

When you meet Jesus Christ face-to-face you will be complete.

Accepting Reality and Hope in Marriage

H. Norman Wright

Remember the first time you saw your future spouse? Bring that image back to mind. Where were you? What was the other wearing? What was your first impression and response to the way the person looked?

Because we are in Christ, we have the capacity to forgive ourselves and thus are enabled to forgive others.

How to Forgive in Marriage

H. Norman Wright

A person who continually brings up something hurtful his spouse did or said in the past that was hurtful . . . continues to punish the other person and erects a wall of indifference and coldness.

If your father protected you, you probably perceive God as your protector in life.

How Do You View God?

H. Norman Wright

Sometimes we create God in our own image or in the image of our parents. If your own father was distant, impersonal and uncaring, and wouldn’t intervene for you, you may see God as having the same characteristics.

Understand your partner and yourself through God’s eyes.

In the Image of God

H. Norman Wright

One day, perhaps not too long from now, you will be involved in a wedding ceremony. You may be the one standing at the front of the church watching a special person walking toward you or you may be the person doing the walking down the aisle.

God is truth, and our prayers must never seek to change or disguise truth

Discovering God's Stability in a Changing World

H. Norman Wright

We live in a world full of rapid change; and it is occurring faster and faster. One thing though does not and will not change, and that is God. Change has a purpose; it is either for better or for worse.

True respect creates space for your partner to develop individuality and potential.

Respect One Another

H. Norman Wright

Dictionaries say “respect” means to feel or show honor or esteem for a person, to hold them in high regard, to treat with deference, to show consideration for. In marriage, respect means you notice things about your partner that no one else does.
