We all need periodic health checkups. Sometimes those occaisional checkups will reveal areas of disease or point out unhealthy lifestyles that need to be changed. It's the same with our marriages. Many of them are in dis-ease because we haven't taken time to get a good checkup and correct some unhealthy lifestyles. Take this *marriage health checkup; first individually and then discuss it as a couple. Let God lead you as you seek to have a healthy, vibrant marriage.
1. Are we partners or competitors?
2. Are we helping each other become more spiritual?
3. Are we depending on the externals or the eternals? The artificial or the real?
4. Do we understand each other better?
5. Are we sensitive to each other's feelings and ideas, or taking each other for granted?
6. Are we seeing God answer our prayers?
7. Are we enriched because of our marriage, or robbing each other of God's blessing?
