LOVE'S SCRIPT

"All the knowledge from all other books is only profitable till death; the knowledge received from the BIBLE is profitable in life, at death, after death, for all eternity." - W. F Kumuyi


Psalm 119:24 (ISV)
I take joy in your decrees, for they are my counselors.


The need to always refresh ourselves with knowledge cannot be over emphasized. Some have even said knowledge is power. Whether or not that is true, what we cannot deny is that knowledge places one in a position of advantage. Each of us should strive to keep learning and to apply what we learn. No matter what you know, it's at best only a part of what can be known. So, being open to learning is a very fundamental part of success in any endeavour of life. The case is not different for marriage and relationships. I encourage couples and intending couples to read a lot of stuff that can help them improve their relationships and how they relate to each other. There are loads of helpful materials we can lay our hands on, from DVDs to CDs and even books, magazines, etc, both online and offline. Attending conferences, seminars and special meetings will help us learn a lot too.

One way to show your commitment to your partner and to your relationship is by committing yourself to learning and practising what you learn. Learning has to continue. Having said all this, it's however important to note that there is only one ultimate source of true information. The Bible is the only true source of information. Every other piece of information gotten from any other book or material is true only to the degree to which it conforms to what the Bible says. What we learn from the Bible has eternal relevance. Any relationship/marriage built and run on the principles of the Bible can be likened to a house that is built on a rock. Many people do not understand this and it results in problems for them. Operating your relationship according to the Word of God gives you a relationship filled with peace, joy, love and good success. Of course, we may learn from other materials but except we have a knowledge of the Word of God, we may swallow things hook, line and sinker that we should never apply in our relationships

Today I want to encourage you to build your relationship upon the Word of God. See your relationship as a garden and the Bible as the water that you need to keep it fresh. Water your garden day and night. You and your spouse/partner should be like David when he said what he said in today's Bible text above. Together, learn to enjoy God's decrees (His instructions and ways of sound things) and make them your source of counsel. Give the Bible a higher place in your lives as individuals, in your relationship and in your home. The Bible is God's script that teaches us how to love people the way we ought to. As much as you can, create time daily to read from it, discuss it and pray with what you've learnt from it. A relationship watered with God's Word will definitely be healthier, fresher and more beautiful than one that isn't. As the author of today,s quote says, even after this lifetime is over, in eternity you'll be glad you ran your relationship/marriage according to what the Bible teaches.

Keep loving, Keep living...............LOVE ISSUES
