Living the Promise
When my children were younger, I thought I should be a little more fitness conscious
so their father would live longer. I actually had a running program going where every morning I would run around the block 20 times, until my son moved the block. Then I wasn’t able to do that anymore.
I have a friend who is a real dedicated jogger, but otherwise normal. My friend Brian is a serious runner—always must go faster, must go farther, must get a better time. He’s really committed to it. One day he was going out for his usual jog, pushing hard like he usually did, and he came back home and started writing some checks to pay bills. His wife noticed he was not able to write his address properly, and she noticed that he was reversing some words. She thought, This is strange.
She said, I think we’d better check this out.
She took him to the doctor. The doctor said, Brian, you have had a stroke.
He said, I didn’t feel anything. How could I possibly…
The doctor said, I’ll tell you what I think happened to you. You were experiencing what we call a runners’ high.
Some of you runners know about this—you get to a point where there is a euphoric kind of thing going on, and you literally will run so hard that you don’t realize the damage you’re doing. That’s exactly what happened to my friend, and it took him many months to recover from the effects of that stroke. He felt no pain, but he was just running so hard, he had no idea the damage he was doing.
That can actually happen in your most important relationships in your life. You can be running so hard that you don’t know the damage you’re doing to the people you love the most and who need you the most. It can even happen; in fact it can especially happen, in life’s most intimate human relationship between a husband and a wife.
My father said that a man is actually incomplete until he’s married, and after that he’s finished. I personally don’t believe that. I have been very much completed by the wonderful woman God gave me. We’re going to look at how to avoid the damage; how to battle the pressures that are on the most intimate human relationship there is. In fact, it’s the most invested human relationship there is. If you’re married, you’ve got more tied up in this one than in any other stock you’ve got relationally. Marriage is going to be one of the happiest or one of the hurtingest
words in your life—depending on how the relationship is going.
So, you’ve got a very intimate relationship; you’ve got a heavily invested relationship. Did you know this is the most important human relationship to God? It’s the one He’s looking at the most in your life if you’re a married person. It’s amazing how important the marriage relationship is to God.
It’s pretty amazing to see what God is saying in Malachi 1. He says to the people, "You might as well lock the church doors. You might as well stop having
