Resting in God’s Approval: A Marriage Journey

📖 Introduction

Marriage is one of the most profound and sacred relationships God has designed. It is a covenant filled with moments of joy, challenges, growth, and deep connection. Yet, in the midst of daily pressures and expectations, it’s easy for couples to struggle with feelings of insecurity, striving, or comparison. Resting in God’s approval invites us to find our identity and confidence not in perfection or performance, but in the unconditional love and approval of our Creator.

God’s approval is the foundation that every marriage needs. When we understand that we are deeply loved and accepted by Him, it frees us from the need to prove ourselves to our spouse or the world. This security brings rest — a place where both partners can relax, be authentic, and grow together in grace.

Throughout this 7-day plan, we will discover biblical wisdom that reveals how God’s love shapes our view of ourselves and each other in marriage. We will learn to embrace rest over striving, grace over guilt, and confidence over fear. As we lean into God’s approval, we open our hearts to a marriage marked by peace, joy, and mutual respect.

Each day includes a primary Scripture to ground your time, supporting verses to deepen your understanding, a devotional to inspire reflection, and opportunities to journal and pray. May this journey bring renewal and strength to your marriage as you rest fully in the love of God.
