The real test of love is not how you act when things are easy. It is what you do when you are exhausted and have nothing left. Are you still asking, how can I serve? #Faith #Marriage #ChristianMarriage #ServantHeart #Love #Church #Relationships #GodFirst

No person can fill the void that only God can fill. When we enter marriage looking for someone to complete us, we set both ourselves and our spouse up for failure.
