The Secret To Transform Your Marriage

You want to transform your marriage.

You clicked the link.

You’re reading the post.

And, friends. That makes my heart happy.

You are saying YES to your marraige.

You are saying I want that. I want to transform my marriage.

The truth is there are a ton of things you can do to transform your marriage.

You could click on “topics” at the top of this screen, scroll down one to marriage and find a ton marriage tips.

You can even find 5 Daily Habits To Transform Your Marriage among the post options.

And, they would all be good ideas.

They might even work.

For little while… but deep in your heart…

“The secret to transform your marriage is…. Jesus.”

Yes. That simple Sunday school answer for each question. Jesus. Just Jesus. And, lots of prayer. But, the truth is, the answer isn’t that simple. Life is complicated. Marriage is complicated. We are two completely different people, living under one roof. Life isn’t always easy But God…

… shows us what grace truly is.

… teaches us sacrifice.

… and shows us what it means to love unconditionally.

There have been seasons in my life where I have tried to carry the burden of being a perfect wife. I have tried to be kind, loving, patient – you know all things that love is suppose to be…but I have found that without Christ, I am selfish. I am stubborn. I can be moody. I’m so imperfect. But, in those moments, I have seen my spouse show me grace… I see Jesus and I see him transforming our marriage.

Watching God transform your marriage through his power, while learning more about him and seeking him is breathtaking. Painful at times, joyous at times. But He is working. He moves in our hearts to transform us into His likeness. And we battle. Sometimes we win, sometimes we fall. But, its in BOTH of those moments we see what our marriage is made of – in the pit and in the palace. We see how far our love goes, how vast our grace is and how big our God is.

He can change any heart. Heal any marriage. Mend any break. He is all powerful. All knowing. All loving and full of grace. He loves you dearly. He is FOR you. He is FOR your marriage. Dig in deep, seek Him and pray. Pray. Pray. Pray.

  • #AD I love seeing kids get opportunities to learn by doing. 🔨

The Home Depot just launched Skills Explorers, a new Path to Pro curriculum created in partnership with Scouting America for youth ages 11–17 that introduces them to hands-on skills like carpentry, electrical work, and other skilled trades.

It’s a chance to build practical skills, confidence, and maybe discover an interest or future possibility they hadn’t considered before.

If you have a kid or teen who loves building, making, or figuring out how things work, this is definitely worth exploring. 🤍

  • 🎃 Halloween gift ideas just got a whole lot cuter.

These Halloween icon glasses make the BEST little Halloween gifts! 👻 I filled each one with an eye mask, hand sanitizer, lip balm, candy + a mini clip for a gift that’s fun, useful, and actually leaves them with something they can keep.

Perfect for Halloween parties, girls’ night, teacher gifts, coworkers, or neighbors. 🧡

  • IYKYK… 👀🎄 An icon-style glass for $5?! At @pOpshelf?! Say less. #pOpshelfPartner

And it wasn’t the only find that had me doing a double take—the $3 dish, $5 drum candle and $10 décor find were TOO good.

I’m loving how these affordable Christmas finds came together to create that high-end, collected look without the high-end price tag. ✨

If you’re decorating for Christmas, head to your local pOpshelf before your favorites sell out!

  • Advent can be such a beautiful season, but it’s easy for the busyness of Christmas to take over. 🤍

This year, I’m being more intentional about slowing down, focusing on Jesus, and creating meaningful moments with my family and The Daily Grace Co.’s new Advent Collection is such a beautiful way to do that. ✨

The 2026 Advent Collection is officially here!

  • Getting a head start on fall at our family’s property 🍂🌳 There’s always something that needs to be cleaned up, and having the right tools makes those projects feel so much more manageable.

This DEWALT 20V MAX 12 in. Brushless Cordless Chainsaw Kit from @homedepot made clearing out branches and deadwood so much easier. It’s lightweight, easy to maneuver, and I love not having to deal with gas, fumes, or a cold start.

If you’re tackling your own fall projects, head to The Home Depot - the right tools make all the difference. 

PRO TIP: Use The Home Depot App’s Product Locator while you’re in store to make finding things so much easier (I’m talking aisle and bay numbers - so simple).
