Keep God first …AND last 🌸

From my own experience, I’ve found that keeping God not only first but also last in a marriage creates a continuous spiritual anchor that helps couples navigate challenges together. It’s easy to say "Keep God first," but integrating Him last means acknowledging His presence during all seasons, especially the middle phases where everyday life tests the bond. In the middle of marriage, that stewardship—caring for what God is doing between the start and the future—becomes crucial. It means learning how to love one another with intention and patience, even when the initial excitement fades. The phrase "He’s the Alpha and the Omega" truly resonates here; God is our beginning, middle, and end. Practically, this looks like praying together regularly, prioritizing open communication infused with faith, and seeking guidance from Scripture during conflicts. Building this foundation before planning wedding details grounds the whole relationship on something unshakeable. I encourage couples to watch inspiring conversations like those on Camille’s YouTube channel that delve into maintaining faith amid marriage’s ups and downs. The journey toward a healthy marriage is ongoing, but anchoring it in faith ensures growth that is both meaningful and wise. In 2026 and beyond, the goal is more than a beautiful wedding; it’s a lasting, God-centered partnership.
