How to Stand for What’s Right in Your Marriage

Taking a Stand

Sometimes God calls us to take a stand for our marriage. Proverbs 31:10-31 lays out a guide for a noble, God-honoring wife. Verse 12 says that “she brings him good, not harm, all the days of her life”. Bringing good doesn’t mean that we are passive to our spouse’s sin that hurts us. Good means that we pursue what is holy. We fight for what God tells us is best. We fight for healing and love. We set boundaries that encourage healthiness and growth. Good means that we take a stand and fight for a healthier marriage.
