2. Relationship Priority Over Other “Good Things”
Great relationships don’t just happen. They take work. Even though we know this truth, it can be tempting to neglect our relationship in the name of other “good things.” Maintaining a strong marriage means making your spouse a priority no matter what else begs for your attention. Whether that’s church, social work, being there for someone who really needs us, working for the next promotion, kids or helping others—good things can spoil great marriages. That’s why it isn’t hard to find an example of someone doing great things, but having a terrible relationship. Maintaining a strong marriage means making your spouse a priority no matter what else begs for your attention.
