Part Four
How do you make your marriage flow like the music in a dance? The Holy Spirit can take your marriage from walking to dancing. The Holy Spirit should play the role in our lives much like the role music plays for the ballroom dance couple. It dictates what we do, day-to-day.
When we surrender our lives to our creator God, and His Son Jesus, the Holy Spirit resides within us. This will guide us through the ups and downs of life. We don’t ever have to do life alone.
If Dan and I are listening to different “music”, we will not be in sync together as a couple. We will not flow together. It will be much more difficult to keep our marriage close.
Each of us has to choose what “music” to listen to. Will it be earthly or heavenly?
If you let God guide you in your marriage, you will no longer be walking, but dancing!
