How to cultivate love and root out weeds in your marriage.

Marriage is like a garden. It needs intentional care and cultivation. When weeds grow, they must be pulled up from the root immediately. If we don’t pull up weeds by the root they will continue to grow back, eventually overtaking and killing the garden.

So how do we care for and cultivate our marriages?

1. Let the Gardener (God) care for and cultivate your garden by letting him plant it. (See Eph. 5:25–33).

It is important for husbands and wives to realize that their marriages are a picture of Jesus and his church. The husband represents Jesus and the wife represents the church. The husband loves and sacrifices for his wife, and in response to his love, the wife respects and follow her husband’s leadership.

2. Let the Gardener care for and cultivate your garden through the work of Jesus.

God cares for our garden by applying his grace to our lives through Jesus. In Christ,

• We are forever forgiven (Eph. 1:7)
• We are as righteous as Jesus (Rom. 5:9)
• We are loved (Eph. 1:5)
• We are reconciled to God (Rom. 5:10)
• We are regenerated with the life of Jesus himself (Gal. 2:20)
• We are God’s dwelling place and temple (Eph. 2:19–22)
• We are sealed and filled by the Spirit (Eph. 1:13; 5:18)
• We are the body of Christ (2 Cor. 12:12)

The nutrients of grace, when received and acted upon by faith, keep our gardens green and healthy.

3. Grow your garden by working on it.

A great marriage takes great work.

• Read books on marriage.
• Attend marriage conferences.
• Get marriage counseling.
• Date each other.

4. Pull up weeds immediately!

In 15 years of counseling married couples, I have seen that unforgiveness leads to a pattern of unhealthy behaviors, bitterness, and contempt. ...

My step daughter is 5 and her dad lives states away. He calls her maybe once a month (not even on holidays) he hasn’t had her since she was one (when they lived in the same state) he had told my wife if our daughter wanted to see him we could bring her to him but he wasn’t coming to our state. My wife asked him beginning of this year if he’d sign his rights over. He doesn’t talk to her and he was behind on child support. He said no and that we was going to finally pick her up. He is getting married and didn’t include the little one we told him if he is going to get her he needs to tell her that it’s not just him living there and he is getting married. Our daughter was hurt by it that he hid this from her (they’ve been engaged for 4 years). She’s been crying she doesn’t want to go and he isn’t willing to come stay the week here to visit. He said he is taking her back to his state for a month. Yes it’s in their agreement but is there anything we can do? She really doesn’t want to go to a “strangers” house is what my daughter says. 

It's almost June, which means we should soon start to hear the peal of wedding bells.

Anand Marriage Act 1909

An analysis of SC judgments in Veluswamy case [AIR 2011 SC 479] and IndraSarma case [AIR 2014 SC 309] reveals that not all live-in relationships are to be deemed as a “relationship in the nature of marriage” u/s 2(f) of the DV Act. The wider interpretation of the term is aimed at welfare of unmarried women in live-in relationships who are left estranged or abused; but not at promoting adulterous relationships. The benefits provided under the Act are to be interpreted harmoniously, not violating penal provisions of adultery. Since, the applicant admitted the existence of her first marriage, negating the possibility of a legal marriage between the two contesting parties, revision was dismissed stating no “domestic relationship” subsists between them.
