Matthew 6:33

• What expectations do you have of your marriage that are not part of the of the Kingdom of God? Maybe my marriage is not primarily about my contentment and my happiness, but to mirror God's image. How would my relationship be different if that is true? What has God given us in each other? What did God bring us together to do? What does the way you interact with your spouse reveal about you? What does this brother or sister in Christ have to reveal to me about ways I need to grow.
