Make the Shift

A single lens will ruin a marriage.

Marriage requires a shift in mindset, words and behavior. You think different, talk different and move different.

It's OUR house. OUR kids. OUR money. OUR future.

It's respect, transparency and communication.

It's thoughtfulness and consideration.

It's compromise and sometimes sacrifice.

It's contributing to, aligning with, and submitting to the vision.

It's swallowing pride.

It's leaving and cleaving.

It's a lot of things single solo dolo didn't require.

Make sure you make the shift.

Folks who know me, know I am a Marvel movie fan! I also love Star Wars and the occasional DC movie.

One of the always common themes is a struggle between good and evil and a super human being full of power and humanity that comes to save mankind from evil oppression, bo***ge, chaos and death.

Same script, yet we love to see it! I know I do!

But before there was Marvel or DC comics and Star Wars trilogies about evil empires, Jedi knights and the Force, there was the greatest story ever told...the best to ever do it...the epic story of God's plan to save mankind from death and destruction. Our hero, God the Father. God the Son. God the Holy Spirit.

Included in this story, Adam, Eve, Moses, Abraham, Sarah, a host of kings, prophets, bad guys, Mary, Joseph, a faithful band of disciples, a traitor, factions, a resistance and you and me.

Using my movie trailer voice...In a world that began before there was even a galaxy far far away. A story that began before time and the foundation of the Earth. Comes a Savior, a King and a Kingdom advancing against darkness.

And this story is true.

Happy Resurrection Sunday! Let the meaning seep deeply into your hearts and the joy of the Lord and salvation spring forth.

I taught on the topic of giving last night and shared this video.

Warning: Get your tissues.

May it bless you and move you to give in love.
