00:00:12,205 --> 00:00:14,725
Speaker 2: From the Salvation Army. Welcome to Heartbeat.

3
00:00:16,645 --> 00:00:19,205
Speaker 1: You've probably heard people say that marriage is a fifty

4
00:00:19,205 --> 00:00:21,925
Speaker 1: to fifty partnership, but if you've been married for any

5
00:00:22,005 --> 00:00:25,805
Speaker 1: amount of time, you know that's not really true. There

6
00:00:25,884 --> 00:00:28,725
Speaker 1: will be moments when the person you love simply doesn't

7
00:00:28,725 --> 00:00:32,125
Speaker 1: have fifty percent to give. Some days it might feel

8
00:00:32,165 --> 00:00:35,644
Speaker 1: like eighty twenty, other days it might be thirty seventy.

9
00:00:36,245 --> 00:00:39,645
Speaker 1: That's how we step up for each other. Real christ

10
00:00:39,805 --> 00:00:43,205
Speaker 1: like love doesn't keep score. It doesn't say I did

11
00:00:43,205 --> 00:00:46,645
Speaker 1: my half, now you do yours. Instead, it asks what

12
00:00:46,685 --> 00:00:49,805
Speaker 1: does my spouse need from me today? Some days you

13
00:00:49,885 --> 00:00:52,845
Speaker 1: carry more of the weight, other days they will carry you.

14
00:00:53,485 --> 00:00:57,725
Speaker 1: Marriage isn't about perfect balance. It's about faithful commitment. It's

15
00:00:57,725 --> 00:00:59,885
Speaker 1: about showing up for each other the way Christ shows

16
00:00:59,965 --> 00:01:03,685
Speaker 1: up for us, patiently, sacrificially, and with grace.
