I challenge every married couple to put your spouse
on your back and carry them around all day everywhere you go. I already know
the responses I am receiving right now from anyone reading this. The most
popular one will be, “There is no way I can carry my spouse around on my back
for a second, less known all day”!
“Come to Me, all who are weary and heavily
burdened [by religious rituals that provide no peace], and I
will give you rest [refreshing your souls with salvation]. Take My
yoke upon you and learn from Me [following
Me as My disciple], for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest (renewal,
blessed quiet) for your souls. For My yoke is easy [to
bear] and My burden is light.” Mathew
11:28-30 AMP
Exactly my point! If your wife or husband is a
manager or holds an executive position, it is taxing to them to have a wife or
husband calling with decisions he/she is capable of making. Such as, “Do you want
me to wash the clothes”; or "Green Grass Lawn Service is here to cut grass today, is that
alright”? If you know your grass has not been cut for a week and the mowing
company comes on a Monday instead of a Tuesday, it’s not a deal breaker. The
contract is once a week or as needed.
Wash the clothes, take the chicken out for dinner if your spouse forgot, or buy the milk if you are out. Make a decision without doubt or worry it is the wrong thing to do!
There will be many times it will require the two of
you to be involved in the decision making, but menial things around the house
will just take your initiative to do it. After a while, the one carrying the
weight of the marriage will soon fall beneath it if you are not willing to share
the load he/she is bearing!
Wash the clothes, take the chicken out for dinner if your spouse forgot, or buy the milk if you are out. Make a decision without doubt or worry it is the wrong thing to do!
