Your Question:
How do I keep my marriage strong when we're struggling financially?
Answer:
As someone who's been married for 19 years, I can attest that financial struggles can put a significant strain on a marriage. Susan and I have had our share of financial ups and downs, but we've learned that it's essential to prioritize our relationship and communicate openly about our finances. We make sure to involve each other in decision-making and pray together about how to manage our resources wisely. It's crucial to remember that our finances belong to God, and we're stewards of what He's given us. When we recognize this, we can avoid the pitfalls that come with financial irresponsibility. We can learn to be grateful for what we have and not take it for granted. Susan and I have also learned to be good stewards of our finances by planning for the future, avoiding unnecessary debt, and making wise decisions about how to spend our money. Ultimately, our marriage is not just about our finances, but about our relationship with each other and with God. When we prioritize our relationship and seek God's guidance, we can navigate financial challenges with more ease and come out stronger on the other side. I encourage couples to pray together, communicate openly, and seek God's wisdom in managing their finances. By doing so, they can build a stronger, more resilient marriage that can weather any financial storm.
