One Day at a Time

Monday Devotion

“And God is able to bless you abundantly; so that in all things at all times, having all that you need, you will abound in every good work.”

2 Corinthians 9:8

The spiritual brilliance of marriage can also seem like its greatest curse.  Because God has created a relationship that only death is to break, we have the security of working through issues we might otherwise feel tempted to run from.  But that blessing can, during difficult seasons, seem like a curse.  Because only death, abuse, or adultery can break the bonds of marriage, it may sometimes feel like the dark season we’re in has no end in sight—night without coming dawn, winter with no ensuring spring.

And that can make us panic.
