“No other human relationship can approach the potential for intimacy and oneness than can be found within the context of a marriage commitment. And yet no other relationship can bring with it as many adjustments, difficulties and even hurts. There's no way you can avoid these difficulties; each couple's journey is unique. But there is much you can do to prepare for that journey. An engagement is not just a time of preparation for a wedding, but also preparation for a marriage.” WayHumansFoundCan DoHurtJourneyCoupleApproachUniqueCommitmentDifficultyOnenessIntimacyPreparationEngagementAdjustmentHuman RelationsHuman Relationships Author:Dennis Rainey

“It is essential that we renew our covenants by partaking of the sacrament. When we do this with a sincere heart, with real intent, forsaking our sins, and renewing our commitment to God, the Lord provides a way whereby sins can be forgiven from week to week. Simply eating the bread and drinking the water will not bring that forgiveness. We must prepare and then partake with a broken heart and contrite spirit. The spiritual preparation we make to partake of the sacrament is essential to receiving a remission of our sins.” WayHeartRealSpiritualSpiritWaterSinLordWeekBrokenEssentialsEatingCommitmentDrinkingBreadPreparationSincereReceivingForgivenSacramentsCovenantCommitment To GodRemissionSincere Heart Author:Vaughn J Featherstone

“Our Heavenly Father loves each one of us and understands that this process of climbing higher takes preparation, time, and commitment. He understands that we will make mistakes at times, that we will stumble, that we will become discouraged and perhaps even wish to give up and say to ourselves it is not worth the struggle.

“If either person isn't 100% committed to scale every mountain that comes before you to make your relationship work then you aren't ready to enter into it. That's part of the reason the divorce rate is so high. People are entering into the commitment they're making without having the strength of character, fortitude, and resolve to keep the promises they're making to each other and also to God. God cares VERY MUCH that we keep our marital promises -He enters into the marriage with you whenever you marry so your promises aren't only to each other but also to Him.” PeopleIfsPersonsReasonCharacterCareReadyPromiseMountainCommitmentRateCommittedDivorceScalesPreparationResolveOur RelationshipEnteringFortitudeStrength Of CharacterDivorce Rates Author:Cindy Wright
