Married For Life - #7
LOVE EACH OTHER AND SHARE COMMON GOALS
Ray and Florence Borquez
Married: November 23, 1946 - LA, California
Although Ray is technically retired, he still enjoys the occasional odd job. Florence considers herself lucky to have a spouse who shares her active outlook on life.
Advice: What better partnership is there than that of a loving husband and wife striving together to acheive common objectives? and who better to join forces with than the one you love, the person with whom you've chosen to share your deepest hopes, your fondest dreams, your very life?
One of the biggest problems marriages face today is that the spouses cling to their own individuality rather than fully entering into their new identity as a couple. They hold on to independence at the expense of the unity God intended, maintaning separate checkbooks, separate pursuits, separate vacations, separate friends. Oftentimes they unknowingly have different visions for their marriage and their future.
THe bible says, : 2 people can accomplish more than twice as much as one; they get a better return for their labor..... Look closely at a length of rope; ther is individuality still present in the strands, but it disappears into the oneness of the cord. What you hold in your hands is a single. strong rope powerful enough to move heavy loads.
Gd has designed marriage to make the 2 of you stronger together than you ever were when you were single. As a result, you dont need to be afraid to set big goals. Why dont you and your spouse talk today about what your life together was meant to accomplish?
'This explains why a man leaves his father and mother and i joined to his wife, and the 2 are united into 1.' Genesis 2:24
