Show Notes

Today we take a different approach to observing Lent by doing things as a couple. The scripture today is 1 John 3:16-17 in the New Living Translation. The quote in the article is found below.

“Marriage, therefore, means a lifelong commitment of genuine self-surrender. It calls for humility, fortitude, a spirit of sacrifice, and docility to the graces which God always grants when they are asked with simplicity. Husband and wife will be happy together if they learn to overcome selfishness and love of comfort, if they avoid seeking personal compensations for every sacrifice they make, and if they know how to give without anything in return. To achieve all this, it will help them greatly to remember that whatever they do for the love of their spouse is reckoned by Christ as actually done to Himself.”    From Marriage: A Path to Sanctity, Javier Abad & Eugenio Fenoy, January 1, 2002, Sinag-tala publishers, inc. Makati Village, Philippines
