To keep your marriage brimming
With love in the loving cup,
Whenever you’re wrong, admit it;
Whenever you’re right, shut up.
This is a quote I’ve used while performing many marriage ceremonies. At the time, the couple probably didn’t get the full weight of the poem. However, looking back at their video, they can let it hit home.
Colossians 3:19
Husbands, love your wives, and be not bitter against them.
Ephesians 5:33
However, let each one of you love his wife as himself, and let the wife see that she respects her husband.
If you haven’t yet memorized this poem accompanied by these verses, do so now.
Give it some thought.
