Take Back Your Marriage!

Everything is fighting for your attention. Bachelor in Paradise is on your TV, you are checking your Instagram, your kids are crying, you have a million things on your to do list and your checkbook just doesn’t quite have enough in it this month. From the second your feet hit the floor, you are constantly busy. You feel like you are barely keeping your head above water, let alone thriving. You feel like there just aren’t enough hours in the day. And your spouse… you are lucky if you get a minute to even say hi to each other.

It is time to take back your marriage.
It is time to take back your life.

Don’t let the weight of this world weigh you down. Its time to prioritize your marriage and take it back.

Take back your marriage from your kids.
Take back your marriage from technology.
Take back your marriage from your finances.
Take back your marriage from your busy schedule.
And, take back your marriage from yourself.

Where do you start you ask? In prayer. On your knees.

Lord, We confess that we are too busy. Everything around us is fighting for our attention and the world is overtaking us. I want to put you first. I want to trust in your word and apply it to my life. I want to know you more and develop a deeper relationship with you. Help me take back my marriage. Help me refocus and reprioritize my life. I want to put you first and my husband second. I want to remove distractions that entangle me and take away my joy. Lord, guide me as I go through this process. Help me strengthen my marriage. Give me grace. Give me strength. I need you Lord. Amen.

Then, follow along for the next 5 weeks as we take back our marriages. Each week I will sharing on one of the topics above and how to reprioritize your life and take back your marriage.

  • #ad Making a snack board can be intimidating, but using great products is key!

I love using @Bluediamond Nut-Thins® 💙 because they’re gluten free and I love the crisp texture. Plus, they are sturdy and perfect for topping/dipping on any snack board.

And, @montchevre Garlic & Herb Goat Cheese 🧀 has such a great flavor and is made with the highest quality goat’s milk sourced locally in the Midwest. 

Finally, @mikeshothoney gives you the perfect mix of sweet and heat! 🍯It’s great to drizzle on any foods on your board. 

Grab these and your other favorites at @walmart to make a delicious charcuterie board! 🚨 From 07/18/25 to 08/20/25 – Buy one (1) Montchevre® Goat Cheese & get one (1) Blue Diamond® Nut-Thins® free at Walmart. #mikeshothoney
  • #SnackFactoryPartner You’re gonna want to try these! 💙The @snackfactory Pop’ums are perfect for movie nights. 

They have a golden pretzel outside with a light and crispy inside. They are so good, we just can’t get enough!. You can find them in the salty snack aisle at @Target!
