LOVE ALWAYS TAKES MAINTENANCE- KINDNESS IS A BIG PART OF THAT!

Be kind to one another; tenderhearted. Ephesians 4:32..... Maintenance to your home requires a great deal of money, time, and effort. A broken shingle must be replaced, a torn screen mended, a squeaky hinge oiled, a leaky tap fixed. Yet how great it is to live in a house where the roof keeps out the rain, the windows keep out the bugs, the doors swing freely- and never the sound of a dripping faucet is heard! While “love maintenance” may not require a lot of money. It does require a lot of time and effort, and of course, kindness. Observe the interactions in your house, and then compile a “to do” list (and a “not to do list”). Pay special attention to the little things, which make such a big difference in a relationship. The bible says (twice!) “A quarrelsome wife is like a constant dripping” (Proverbs 19:13). It’s a warning husbands should heed to as well. Get busy on those lists and discover how enjoyable and long-lasting a well maintained marriage can be!
