Intimacy—oneness—must have a foundation of security. You’ve probably heard the expression, “You can take it to the bank!” meaning “It’s for sure, absolutely secure.”

    Unconditional commitment to another person, and a God as well, gives Christians a secure bank for life’s experiences, and that brings trust and serenity to the relationship. Celebrations, births, promotions, joyful times become the currency for contentment when they are lovingly banked into a resevoir of memories and when a relationship pledges itself, both to each other and to the Lord.

    So let’s make the rest of the day work a little better for you. Take your marriage to the bank; make it secure by making an unconditional commitment to your spouse.
