10 Reasonable Biblical Expectations for Marriage (5th and 6th)

• There is a time for everything,
  and a season for every activity under heaven...
  a time to tear down and a time to build...
  a time to mourn and a time to dance...
  a time to search ad a time to give up...
  a time to tear and a time to mend (Eccl. 3:1, 3, 4, 6, 7 NIV)
• When a man has taken a new wife, he shall not go out to war or be charged with any business; he shall be free at home one year, and bring happiness to his wife (Deut. 24:5 NKJV)

6. We will use credit carefully as we become wise stewards of our finances.

• Owe no one anything except to love one another (Rom. 13:8 NKJV)
• Then he who had received the five talent went and traded with them, and make another five talents. ... His lord said to him, "Well done, good and faithful servant; you were faithful over a few things, I will make you ruler over many things. Enter the joy of your lord" (Matt. 25:16, 21 NKJV)
