My husband and I have been together for 22 years (or 21 I'm not sure 😅) and for me one of the biggest things is that you have to be willing to have the difficult moments too. Too many people give up the minute life gets a little tricky. Work through it and your relationship will only improve.

Service to each other is absolutely so key. A lot of our society today seeks a marriage to self fulfill vs seeking a marriage to serve. As someone who is a believer in God and seeking a Christ-centered marriage, this concept is something I’ve thought about a lot! It’s human tendency to be selfish and it takes a lot of work to rid ourselves of that selfishness to serve a partner. However, the beauty is exactly what you stated - when we decide to serve (even when it’s hard) a magical shift happens. Thanks for sharing!
