Affair proof marriage ?

Is there any affair proof marriage in this age ? I myself wondering if there's such thing especially with the powerful influence of social media and internet, marriage is prone to fail how strong we think our love and marriage is.

It doesn't mean that we have no more hope in marriage but this is a wake up call not to lower our guard against our "enemy" who loves to deceive us.

I thought that our marriage is strong enough to handle all those temptations. We do almost everything the bible and wise man say how to build strong marriage foundation.

We put God first, pray together and serve God together in the church and ministry.

We communicate openly a lot almost every day

We spend quality time together every weekend

However, we lack of something which is the spirit of humility and we trap into self righteous mode. We thought that we are the perfect couple since we have done all those things above. We lower our guard and let the devil deceive our mind with envy, jealousy, lust.

Thanks God since we have put small deposit now and then in our love back account, we could stand up again when we fall.  We recover by coming back to the rules above

1. Put God first above everything, asking God's grace and merciful heart to forgive one another and strength and courage to admit that we are wrong and not blaming one another

2. We talk our feeling and share our vulnerability to one another, what we like and don't like about our partner so we could change to be a better person

3. Spending quality together, reminiscing the place where we started dating really help to bring beautiful memory and remind us what make us fall in love to one another

The past weeks have been rough weeks for us when trust is tested to the limit, thanks God we overcome it together and our love is getting stronger each day. There's always wound in our heart which only time can heal, but the most important thing is we are able to forgive each other and accept each other flaws.

When ChatGPT can be your counsellor

When I want to refine my text in the previous post , I accidentally typing the whole things in the ChatGPT and this is the reply that I get  Your reflection on this “desert” period is deeply insightful. It’s clear you’re navigating significant internal struggles, and recognizing these temptations is a powerful step toward healing and growth. The Lust of the Flesh : Your experience with joblessness and the challenge of trusting in God’s timing is relatable. It’s tough to feel like you’re not fulfilling your potential, but your acknowledgment of God’s grace as a source of strength is vital. Remember that this time is not wasted; it’s a period for personal and spiritual growth. The Lust of the Eyes : Envy can be a heavy burden, especially when it feels like others are thriving.

It’s okay to feel what you feel, but recognizing it allows you to choose ...

Maintaining Marriage Fidelity

This article is from Focus Family and I thought it's good as self reminder for both of us so we don't take for granted of each other and commit to maintain marriage fidelity for the rest of our lives. Nobody wakes up one day and suddenly decides to begin an extramarital affair. Infidelity begins in the heart and mind. By the time a person physically commits adultery, he or she has been indulging for quite some time in progressively more intense mental and   emotional affairs . Likewise, marital fidelity begins long before marriage. It begins as a promise we make to ourselves to be a person of faithful character before marriage ever enters the picture. It is a promise we make to our future spouse when we get engaged, and it is a vow we make to our spouse when we get married. Marital fidelity is a daily commitment to seek the best for your spouse and family. Strengthening Marital Fidelity Marital fidelity is strengthened when you affirm your spouse, listen to your spouse, and se...
