ROMANCE FAQ
Question #1. How do I balance being a mother with my first calling as wife?
Answer #1. Family Life conducted a survey of more than ten thousand couples, asking them to name the culprits that robbed their marriages of romance. The most commonly mentioned factors were children, stress, fatigue, busyness, misplaced priorities, anger, and unresolved conflict.
In the Bible we find an appropriate name for these romance robbers. The bride of King Solomon said to him, “Catch us the foxes, the little foxes that spoil the vines, for our vines have tender grapes” (Song 2:15).
In those days, a wise gardener would protect his vineyard from foxes. The nocturnal bandits would sneak in during the dead of night and eat the most tender parts of the vine, rendering them fruitless and useless.
The vineyard is like your marriage. The foxes are the things that sneak up on you and snatch the fruit of passion before it can bloom. Drop your guard, and they’ll reduce the vineyard of your marriage to a barren, lifeless place where romance shrivels on the vine.
At all costs, protect your marriage! That must remain first on your priority list. Children are a gift from God, but your spouse must take precedence. Never let him feel as though he’s second in your life.
