CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
4 times in the OT God makes a formal covenant promise with Israel. The covenant He makes with Abraham is just like the one we talked about. The dead animals, the pathway, the whole bit. It’s in Genesis 15.
The special thing about this promise was that God alone walked through the pathway, he didn’t require Abraham to walk through it. It was as if to say… I want to bless you, and I am asking you to be faithful to Me, to seek Me, and to obey Me…. But regardless of your faithfulness towards me, I will still hold up my end of the bargain and I will be gracious to you. Out of love, I chose you, no matter how you treat Me.
So, what does that have to do with marriage?
Everything. Absolutely everything….
So, what should our response be to our spouse on their worst of days? A selfless love that thinks first of them and their needs.
I mean, imagine for a second if God said to us on our worst of days, “I’m sick of it. I give up! You’re just never going to get it. I’m done with you.” Noooo… come on. He is not like that!! He is patient, He is kind, He is longsuffering with us, He perseveres with us, He is gracious with us, and He forgives us… and our call to love our husband or wife is the same.
