Modern Marriage

Seems marriage today
Lacks God at the center
Now, it’s all about ‘me’
With no plan, to surrender.

Jesus taught us to love
Not just neighbors, but foes
Yes, to love our enemies
If even cursing…bless those.

For hearts have so hardened
Forgiveness, forgotten
Love, is so lacking
God’s truths, downtrodden.

‘Feed your enemy, if hungry
And if thirsty, water too
Heap coals of fire, on his head
The LORD, will reward you’.

And likewise, our neighbor
To love, as our self
Yet too often, we’re selfish
Serving largely, our self.

Instead of commitment
Honoring God, and spouse
We’re caught up, in a culture
Pleasing ‘self’ and our doubts.
