 Jesus said, “By this everyone will know that you are My disciples, if you love one another” (John 13:35 NIV).

For married people, no other “one another” is more important than your spouse. That’s the point of taking the time to love well. That’s the point of being intentional with your thoughts. The purpose of “your us” is to reflect the love of Jesus. Your marriage is to serve as a light, a bridge to who God is, for your kids, family, friends, co-workers, community, and world. When you:

 • Remember who you are, you will love more like Jesus.

• See the best, you will love more like Jesus.

• Choose empathy, you will love more like Jesus.

• Pause, you will love more like Jesus.

And perhaps nothing can help you reflect the love of Jesus more than the next and final intentional thought . . .

Intentional Thought #5: Love first.

When you think, “I just can’t do this”—and in every marriage, those moments will come—think to yourself and even say out loud, if you can, “Love first.” Saying this to yourself frees your mind to love like Jesus in a self-giving way, even when difficult. Of course, I can’t make any promises your spouse might not keep, but there is no greater hope for your marriage than to love following the model Jesus gave us.

Think About It

Reflecting the love of Jesus is the purpose of marriage. That is why, for the next 30 days, I want you to say out loud to yourself twice a day—once in the morning and once before you go to bed—the following Five Intentional Thoughts. I will . . .

•  Remember who I am.

• See the best.

• Choose empathy.

•  Pause.

•  Love first. 

Still time to join: the final registration date is March 1st.
