One Another

Following is a message from Mardy Freeman detailing how she used truth from scripture to help her marriage. I believe this idea is applicable for relationships in general. It looks like a good one to use with my kids! :)

Hello Friends,

I was sharing w/a wife this month about a time in our my marriage when I wasn't doing so well and needed help. I didn't have any mentors to call, so I ended up looking up all the "one another" verses in the New Testament. One another verses tell us how God wants us to treat one another. I then replaced the words "one another" with my husband's name to remind me how the Lord wanted me to treat him as my brother in Christ. Ouch. I came up short.

But, those truths began working on my hard heart sort of like a spiritual meat mallet pounding, pounding, pounding my toughness into submission. I didn't like looking at them, but they gave me an anchor of truth at a difficult time in our marriage.

I thought I would share them with you before tomorrow's meeting. You can copy and paste these for your own use, or just go to www.biblegateway.com and put "one another" in the search window as I did.

For example, in the following verse:

John 15:12"This is My commandment, that you love one another, just as I have loved you."

I changed it to:

John 15:12"This is My commandment, that you love Bill, just as I have loved you."

We have one more marriage testimony to share, so look for it tomorrow!

Love, Mardy
