“I love you” is forever
With your children, watch the part of your wedding video where you and your spouse exchange your wedding vows. Or, look at wedding photos and repeat the vows you said to each other.
Explain that mom and dad promised to keep loving each other forever if good things happened in life or even if bad things happened. Assure your kids of your love for each other. You can define faithfulness as love that goes on forever. Read Mark 10:6-9, and review the questions for discussion.
Questions for discussion
- Are you the kind of friend who sticks with a friend in times of trouble?
- What kind of trouble can you imagine your friend or brother getting into that they would need you to stick by them?
Relevant Scripture
Mark 10:6-9 “But at the beginning of creation God ‘made them male and female.’ For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife and the two will become one flesh. So they were no longer two, but one. Therefore what God has joined together, let man not separate.”
