God’s desire is for every married couple to covet their relationship for a lifetime. In order to have your marriage “go the distance” here are at least ten ways to protect your marriage. It is our prayer it will enrich your relationship.

1. Spend regular time enjoying life with your spouse.
2. Renew in your mind the vows you made to your spouse.
3. Thank God for your mate - imperfections and all.
4. Ask your spouse how you can pray for him/her during the day.
5. Share your temptations with your spouse.
6. Regularly remember why you married your spouse.
7. Let your marriage reap the benefits of your 100% giving.
8. Create and let both of you sign a mission statement which would best describe your marriage and family - Live by it.
9. Resolve to tell your mate: “I love you”, “I promise”, “I need you”.
10. Communicate often your needs to one another.

--Matthew 19:6
