LOVE NEVER GIVES UP
“Having loved His own who were in the world, He loved them to the end. John 13:1
If your spouse is not in a place of receiving your love right now, the act of covenant keeping can be more daunting with each passing day.
But marriage is not a contract with convenient escape clauses and selfish exception wordings.
Marriage is a covenant intended to cut off all avenues of retreat or withdrawal.
There’s no going back.
There’s no opting out.
There’s nothing in the world that should sever what God has joined together.
Your love is based on a covenant.
And your covenant is based on the changing character of a covenant-keeping God.
The prophet Malachi wrote that one reason God withholds His blessing is that He hates divorce and is angered when husbands deal treacherously with their wives, breaking the covenant they made (Malachi 2:16).
Seeing marriage as a contract is like saying to your spouse, “I take you for me, and we’ll see if it works out.”
But realizing it as a covenant changes it around to say, “I give myself to you and commit to this marriage for life.”

What If The Spouse Has Abandoned The Marriage? He Says The Marriage Was Mistake After 6 Years. Can We Marry The Wrong Person?
Hi Takisha! Thanks for your honest comment. You cannot make decisions on what your husband says, only by what God says. Marriage is not a contract, in Gods eyes. It is a covenant. No matter what you do, God never stops loving you or trying to help you get back where you should be. You could remarry 10 times and say it was the wrong person. At what point will it be a covenant? What you have to do is love God and please Him whether your husband is around or not. It is a covenant with God. You have the privilege of serving God and making him number one in your life.
