LOVE DOES NOT SUSTAIN
      A MARRIAGE
THE MARRIAGE COVENANT
     SUSTAINS LOVE
1 Corinthians 13:4-8
 Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does
  not boast, it is not proud. 5 It is not rude, it is not
   self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no
record of wrongs. 6 Love does not delight in evil but
 rejoices with the truth. 7 It always protects, always
   trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. 8 Love
                        never fails.

"Christ dazzles me and
   stirs within me such
 feelings of amazement
that I can never get over
     Him.“ A.W. Tozer
