How Marriages Battle Tough Times

Let us first identify what good couples do right:

1. Smart couples know solutions take time.

2. Smart couples don’t expect the world to fall into their laps.

3. Smart couples won’t settle for a medicore marriage.

There are five tools good marriages use to battle bad things:

1. Ownership

2. Hope – the desire to have the kind of marriage we do not yet have. To believe that that kind of marriage that we want is possible.

3. Empathy

Romans 12:15 Rejoice with those who rejoice; mourn with those who mourn.

4. Forgiveness

5. Commitment
