These daily marriage devotionals are compiled from verses that we have shared with Christian couples in many counseling sessions over many years. Please read one per day and meditate on how it applies to your marriage. (Note: if you are not certain you are a Christian, please read The Sinner’s Prayer)
But you, brothers, don’t be weary in doing what is right. (2 Thessalonians 3:13)
This verse speaks to the importance of perseverance and commitment in our relationships. It reminds us that we will inevitably face challenges and difficulties, but that we should not grow weary or lose heart. Instead, we should keep on doing good and trust in God’s strength to see us through.
As a married couple, it is important to remember that our relationship is a commitment for the long haul. This means being willing to persevere and work through challenges and difficulties, rather than giving up or growing weary. It also means being committed to doing good for one another, showing love and care in the little things as well as the big things.
One way to practice this type of perseverance and commitment in our marriage is by making it a habit to encourage and support one another, especially when we are facing challenges. We can also pray for one another, asking God to give us the strength and grace to persevere and to help us love and serve one another selflessly. By keeping our commitment to one another and to God, we can experience the fullness and joy that He desires for us in our marriage.

If you miss one, two, or many days, don’t worry about it and don’t try to catch up. Just start where you are and keep going. We have found the Holy Spirit can prompt you to return to just the passage you need for today.
This is an ongoing labor of love because these marriage devotionals will never be finished, but we have to start somewhere, so we will update often. We appreciate your support and prayers because this is a work of God not us. And please forgive us because we have never found a verse that doesn’t apply to marriage somehow.
Every word of God is pure: he is a shield unto them that put their trust in him. (Proverbs 30:5)
