"We often start with our own dreams for our families and then build our marriages from there. What if we started with a vision of the end and worked backwards, building the kind of marriage that will prepare us to stand before God?" You and Me Forever, Francis Chan & Lisa Chan

The extreme and elaborate mean nothing without the basics.

"With what shall I come before the LORD and bow down before the exalted God?
Shall I come before him with burnt offerings, with calves a year old?

Will the LORD be pleased with thousands of rams,with ten thousand rivers of oil?
Shall I offer my firstborn for my transgression, the fruit of my body for the sin of my soul?

He has showed you, O man, what is good.

And what does the LORD require of you?
To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God."

- Mi 6:6-8

" Set a guard, O LORD, over my mouth;
keep watch over the door of my lips!

Do not let my heart incline to any evil,
to busy myself with wicked deeds
in company with men who work iniquity,
and let me not eat of their delicacies!"

- Ps 141:3-4

"May God be gracious to us and bless us
and make his face to shine upon us, Selah

" 7 The law of the LORD is perfect,
reviving the soul;
the testimony of the LORD is sure,
making wise the simple;

rejoicing the heart;
the commandment of the LORD is pure,
enlightening the eyes;
9 the fear of the LORD is clean,
enduring forever;
the rules of the LORD are true,
and righteous altogether."

- Ps 19:7-9
