The 4 Laws of Love: Dealing with Problem-In-Laws - 206

The greatest threat to our marriages isn’t from bad things – it is from good things out of priority. When we allow relationships with family or friends to take priority over our marriage, it can create feelings of jealousy and resentment in our spouse. This can lead to conflict and ultimately damage the relationship.

It is important to remember that marriage is a covenant between two people, and it should be given the highest priority in our lives. This means that our spouse should come first in terms of meeting our emotional, physical, and spiritual needs. The only instance where that statement is overruled is with our personal relationship with Jesus. He comes first.

While it is important to have strong relationships with family and friends, they should not come at the expense of our marriage. We must be intentional about setting boundaries and ensuring that our spouse remains the most important person in our lives.

We continue our discussion this week with our series The 4 Laws of Love, the Law of Priority - relationships. My wife, Michelle and I, sit down and discuss the dangers of letting your kids, other family members, and technology get in the way of your spouse's priority. God does have an order for all of those moving parts in our lives.
