Expectations … They’re Not in the Bible!

The strength you gain from going through life together gives you endurance and staying power. You may have expected that your husband should bring you happiness or that he should take care of everything. You know the truth now. Only God can bring you joy unspeakable. Those past expectations have come to light, and as you learn more about who you are in the Lord, you are changing. Those expectations are now unnecessary because God is filling your cup. The transition from looking to your husband for all of your needs and now looking to Jesus brings a certain kind of beauty to your marriage. This feeling of dependency on the Lord replaces the expectations you put on your spouse. Now you can enjoy marriage for what it is: a truly satisfying life together.
