Someone you love, or you, having an affair?

Whatever we concentrate on in our life is the thing that will seem biggest to us.
No unforgiveness!
I put my hope and refuge in You.   I tell You all my problems and anguish.
Everything else is not firm and not stable apart from You.
A multitude of friends will not be of service to us,
money cannot deliver us,
no secret or pleasant place can make us secure  if You do not help,assist, strengthen, comfort, instruct, and defend us Lord!

Forgive us for our lapses of trust in You.
Give us strength and wisdom to show Your love,
To trust in You is the greatest comfort.
We feel a void when we don't spend enough time in Your presence.

"The beginning of all reform must be in yourselves.
However restricted your circumstances,
however little you may be able to remedy financial affairs,
you can always turn to yourselves and seeing something not in order there, 
seek to right that.  All reform is from within out.
You will always find the outward has improved too!
God's power in you can immediately perform miracles.   
Then indeed your mourning will be turned into Joy"  -Intimate Moments

Happy is the man whom God corrects.   Job 5:17

Marriage

"God's reproof is consistent with His character.   He reproves to keep us on the path of blessings.   He not only promises blessing but lovingly reproves to keep us walking toward Him.   He often 'whispers' warning through His still quiet voice, speaks audibly through His word and almost "shouts" His pleas during many of life's seemingly great disappointments."

Without reproof, marriage is like an accident waiting to happen.   Without the freedom to share truth from a burdened heart, indulgence can go unchecked, selfishness uncorrected, and the entanglements of sin unheeded.   God's plan is for caring reproof from a loving spouse." 

Lord than you for Your 'checks' on my tendency to wander.   I trust my spouse with You as well.   I have seen your 'check' on my life, please 'check' my spouse's life as well.

Refuse guilt that is not yours.   If you are walking with God and tough times come,
don't necessarily look inward for a secret sin, look upward where you will find hope.
