“The Most Important Thing in Marriage” was the topic for our first week.
God has made us with 4 core needs that only HE can meet and that we need to evaluate our lives and find out if we are relying on our spouse or other people or things to meet those core needs. If we aren’t relying on the Lord to meet those needs, we should repent (“change our minds” as Suzanne said) and trust the Lord to meet those needs in our lives.
The 4 core needs were:
Acceptance- knowing that we are loved
Identity- knowing that we are significant
Security- knowing that we are provided for and protected
Purpose- knowing that we have a plan for our lives.
It we look to anything or anyone else other than God, we will continually be disappointed. When we rely on Him, our live will be full of joy and purpose, even through the rough times in life.
