Blindsided

yellow and purple clouds

Marriage? Yes, marriage is really a ministry! Says who, you may ask?

Well, can you hear the word resounding from the book of Colossians?

3:18-19 (18)”Wives, submit to your own husbands, as is fitting in the

Lord,” (19)”Husbands, love your wives and do not be bitter toward them.”

Ephesians 5:33 “Nevertheless let each one of you in particular so love his

Own wife as himself, and let the wife see that she respects her husband.”

Sadly though, husbands and wives have been blindsided by neglect and

Procrastination, which is the thief of time, the silent treatment, dominating,

Disrespect, mistrust, and jealousy. This list can go on and are like vices eating

Away at the very core of your marriage relationship. You have been blindsided!

Husbands, do you find yourselves too busy to pick-up the telephone and call

Your wife and say, “Honey, I just called to tell you I love you?” or to come home

To eat dinner with the family? When was the last time you held even a conversation

With your wife? How much longer are you going to procrastinate displaying just

How much you really love her? Wives, you too have been blind sided. When are

You going to consistently wash and iron your husband’s clothes and cook his

Food without burning up the pot? What about keeping his castle freshly cleaned.

When was the last time you clipped his finger and toe nails, or anointed him with

Oil? The word is speaking this time from the book of Romans 12:21 “Do not be

Overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.” Pause and calmly think about

This. In every car there is a blind spot, so as you know one must always utilize the

Two sides and the rear view mirrors. Still the blind spot remains. So it is in marriage

Relationships, there are blind spots that only Yahweh, the God who redeems can

Give the revelation.

Today (me too) lets ask Abba Father to take the blinders off so you can minister His

Love to your spouse without being judgmental. Make it a priority to speak kind words

To each other, seek to build each other. It is also very important to accept each other

For who you are, tender loving care is much needed and you will see bitterness and wrath

Flee away. Take precaution, make sure Jesus Christ is at the helm, for it is only He who

Will keep you from being blind sided. Husbands and wives it is time to take a stand, make

A one hundred percent 100% effort to display the love of Jesus Christ to each other. You

Will never ever be blind sided and your relationship with each other will grow by leaps and

Bounds! Marriage? Yes, marriage is a ministry which cannot afford to be blindsided!
