| I will purify myself by obeying the truth so that I may have sincere love. . . that we may love one another deeply, from the heart. 1 Peter 1:22 Personalized As for me and my household, we will serve the Lord. Joshua 24:15b Personalized I will be careful to lead a blameless life. Psalm 101:2a Personalized I will trust in the Lord with all my heart and lean not on my own understanding; in all my ways I will acknowledge him, and he will make our paths straight. Proverbs 3:5-6 Personalized Hatred stirs up dissension, but love covers over all wrongs. Proverbs 10:12 I will get rid of all bitterness, rage and anger, brawling and slander, along with every form of malice. I will be kind and compassionate to my mate, forgiving them, just as in Christ God forgave me. Ephesians 4:31-32 Personalized I will submit to my mate out of reverence for Christ. For Wives: I will submit to my husband as to the Lord. For the husband is the head of the wife as Christ is the head of the church, his body, of which he is the Savior. Now as the church submits to Christ, so I will submit to husband husbands in everything. For Husbands: I will love my wife, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her to make her holy, cleansing her by the washing with water through the word, and to present her to himself as a radiant church, without stain or wrinkle or any other blemish, but holy and blameless. I n this same way, I will love my wife as my own body. For if I love my wife I love myself. After all, no one ever hated his own body, but he feeds and cares for it, just as Christ does the church— for we are members of his body. " For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh." Ephesians 5:21-31 Personalized We will live in harmony with one another; be sympathetic, love as brothers, be compassionate and humble. I will not repay evil with evil or insult with insult, but with blessing, because to this I have been called so that I may inherit a blessing. 1 Peter 3:8-9 Personalized |
