Marriage is for the glory of God.  So what I'm doing, would it honor God? Is it something with which God would be well pleased? If you can just get in the habit of cultivating that kind of thought process, then obviously all these aspects to living the married life will be run through that filter, and you'll go a long way toward having a marriage that honors God. The problem is that we forget that. Now we start living back to our own devices, back in self-indulgent ways and fleshly ways and trying to serve ourselves, not considering, not considering our spouse, but not considering God either. And marriage is to be lived for the glory of God. Romans 11-36 says, So all things were created by Him, all things were created for Him, all things are through Him and to Him, including your marriage. It is for the glory of God. Isaiah 43, verse 6 says this, Everything was created for the glory of God. Marriage is created, instituted, ordained by God for the glory of God. Colossians chapter 1, verse 16, And what? For Him, created through Him and for Him, all for the glory of God. Your marriage exists for Him. And to the degree that you don't acknowledge Him in your marriage, it's to the degree that you are self-serving and self-sufficient and self-indulgent and selfish. For in that, for Him communicates that God is supreme and you are not. You are not for yourselves, you're for Him. Your marriage is not for yourself, your marriage is for Him. For communicates that God is supreme and your marriage is not. Just think about that for a moment. Everything was lived for the glory of God, Him being supreme and everything else would take care of itself. Everything else would be God glorifying. God is not the genie in the bottle that you rub to make your marriage tolerable or to get the promotion that you want at work or to have well-behaved children or to get rich or to be content. Your marriage, all marriages, are to be lived for the glory of God. Now for His glory, when we talk about glorifying God, for His glory means the display of His attributes, His perfections, His excellencies, His matchless attributes. When we talk about glorifying God, we're talking about displaying or proclaiming the matchless excellencies and attributes of God. That's what we say. God has no need of any additional glory. He is full of glory in and of Himself. So when you say, I'm going to glorify God, you're not adding to His glory. God is fully glory already. What you're doing is reflecting His glory. You're reflecting His attributes. You're proclaiming His excellencies. And in that we are said to glorify God. Now think about that in terms of the church. Think about that in terms of Christians everywhere. You're like individual little mirrors, all right, that are arranged in a vast array of mirrors that each one reflects light, the radiance, the beauty, the majesty, the truth, the worthiness, the greatness of God.  Every Christian marriage is a little reflector, is a little mirror, reflecting back light, that altogether are brighter than the sun. But you each one have a light that you're reflecting. It's a, we're to be a flaming torch, if you will, to this lost world who lives in darkness. In that sense marriage is a display of God, a display of His attributes, a display of His perfections, His excellencies. Now allow this to sink deep for a minute into your heart and mind. Your marriage, your relationship with your spouse is to reflect the glory of God, the perfections of God, the attributes of God, the radiance of God.  Allow your marriage through what we've talked about to be transformed by God through His Word, to be sanctified, again it's to be a living breathing organic display of God's glory. In the same way that one heart this morning serves sort of as an introduction, leading some very practical instruction, allow this to sort of serve as a conclusion to give you another filter through which we view our marriages and how we're to live in our marriages for Christ is to bind everything together, right? And to Rick's point a minute ago, orthodoxy is right doctrine should lead to orthopraxy, right practice. Doctrine should lead to faithful practice, but also should lead to doxology, which is worship. In thinking about our marriages and the glory of God, it should provoke worship. The truth of God should lead to worship, and we need to worship God with and in our marriages. Our marriages should worship and point to Christ. Let me give you 20 ways, 20 ways in which the glory of God, let me give you 40 ways, 45 ways in which the glory of God, we'll see if we get through 20, 20 ways in which the glory of God is to be reflected or displayed in your marriage, all right? 20 ways in which the glory of God is to be reflected or displayed in your marriage. First, the glory of God reflected in His creation. Now think about this for a moment, reflecting the glory of God in His creation in your marriage. And this goes a long way with what Rick was talking about a few moments ago. The Bible says in Romans 119 of fallen man, what may be known of God is manifest in lost people, fallen man, for God has shown it to them. For since creation, since the creation of the world, His invisible attributes, God's attributes are clearly seen being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead, so that they are without excuse, because although they knew God, they did not glorify Him as God, nor were thankful, but they became futile in their thoughts and their foolish hearts were darkened. Marriage was instituted by God, created by God for His glory, and you need to live like it belongs to Him. Your marriage belongs to God, it's for His purposes, it's for His glory. Are you glorifying Him as God in your marriage? In what ways are you failing to glorify God in your marriage, living your marriage for Him? Are you thankful to God, truly thankful, in your marriage for your spouse? You know, it goes back to this idea of thankfulness, but that's a mark of a lost person, they weren't thankful. So you can honestly, can you honestly say right now, thinking of your spouse, God, thank you, thank you for my wife, thank you for my husband, thank you for this institution of marriage, all the blessings that come, forgive me, Lord, for not availing myself of all those blessings, forgive me, Lord, for the sin that I bring into this marriage, but Lord, thank you, thank you that I can live for you, that I can trust in you, that I can depend on you for a godly marriage and be thankful. Consider asking yourself simple questions in your marriage. When you arrive at circumstances, when you come up on those conversations, you know, when you have difficulties or trial, is it glorifying to God? Well, the decision that I make, glorify Him. How I'm responding to my spouse right now, is it glorifying to God? Is our intimate relationship glorifying to God? Is the way that we communicate together, is that glorifying to God? Am I glorifying God in my marriage? Will it bring Him honor? How I'm interacting with my spouse? How we're living together at this point? Is it bringing God honor? And that becomes a qualifier for Christian marriage that God created for His glory. Christian marriage is for God's glory. Number two, the glory of God in His immutability. In His immutability, God does not change. He is the same yesterday, today, and forever. God's word does not change because it comes from God. It is the same yesterday, today, and forever. God's design for marriage does not change. As a result, it is the same yesterday, today, and forever. So you glorify God in your marriage by displaying God's immutable plan for marriage. This wicked world is an unstable wave tossed to and fro in the sea, right? Driven by the wind. But with God, there is no variation or shadow of turning. So the world's conceptions of marriage are going to change like the tides. They're changing every five minutes, you know, some one more piece of psycho babble about marriage after another, just turning it out, and it changes all the time. And we've seen it change dramatically, say in the last five, seven, eight years, right? Dramatic changes. However, God's instruction for marriage is the same yesterday, today, and forever. And so despite the world's outrage that a woman would be content to stay home and be a helper to her husband and you know, keep house and display the glory of God in living out her role as a wife in the marriage, a world would be outraged at that thought. Despite that, you let the world do what the world's going to do, and you follow God's plan for marriage. In that, you glorify God and God's immutability in his immutable plan for marriage. You show that in spite of a changing world, God is right. God's ways are right. His plan is right. You follow God's plan, which does not change. Psalm 145, verse 17. The Lord is righteous in all his ways, gracious in all his works, and his works are just as righteous today as they were 2,000 years ago, as they were 4,000 years ago. God is just as gracious 4,000 years ago as he is today. His works do not change. His plan for marriage does not change. So listen, the longer that we go here, the more glaring the difference will be between your marriage and the world's conception of marriage. It's going to become more and more and more foreign, you know, more alien to this world. Next, display the glory of God in your marriage by displaying the glory of God in his sovereignty, in his sovereignty. We glorify God in our marriage by trusting in God's sovereign plans. Think about Abraham in Romans 4, right? Abraham was a picture of faith in God, given in Scripture as a picture of faith. God says to Abraham, listen, you're going to have a son. Abraham's a hundred. Sarah is just ever so slightly beyond child-bearing years, if she was in her 90s, and yet Abraham isn't stumbling around wondering how this is all going to be possible. Abraham just believes God. He believes God, even though what's about to happen is not humanly possible. He trusts God. Verse 20, if you go to Romans 4, verse 20, he did not waver, the Bible says, at the promise of God through unbelief, but was strengthened in faith, giving glory to God. As we trust God in his sovereign purposes and his sovereign plans, we give glory to God. So you give glory to God in your marriage by trusting in his sovereignty. Listen, the Lord's in control. I will not waver. I will simply believe. The Lord has said he will provide all of my needs, supply all of my needs according to his riches in Christ Jesus, and so I trust his plan. When the trial comes along or the difficulty comes along, listen, God is sovereign, and I'm going to glorify God in my trusting his sovereign plans. That's how we do that in our marriage. If you say I'm a Christian, that you believe that God's in control, you believe that he's sovereign, that he's going to provide, that he cares for you, then you've got to act like it in your marriage. Stop complaining. Stop worrying. Stop being anxious. Stop being discontent. The Lord knows exactly what you need.  It is for your good. It's exactly as the Lord intended it. So what are you complaining about? Glorify God in your understanding of God's sovereignty in your circumstances. Trust him. And my God, the Bible says, will supply all my need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus. You respond that way in trial. You respond that way in difficulty. You respond that way when you begin one of those conversations. You trust the Lord, okay? Trust the Lord with your spouse. Trust the Lord with your spouse. I've heard Christians say, professing Christians say before, that I don't know that I'm with a, how do I know I'm with the right person? Married couple. How do I know I'm with a, because you're married to them. The Lord is sovereign over your circumstances. The Lord is sovereign over who you're married to. You're married. So who is that person? That's exactly the person that God intended for you to marry. God is sovereign over your circumstances. Well, I don't know if he's right for me. Yes, he is. He's exactly right for you. He's exactly what you need. This, this guy's exact, yes, he's exactly what you need. Maybe you need humbling. Maybe you need patience, right? This is the person that God has put you with sovereignly. And so even, listen, if you're a Christian, even your sin God uses for good, you can make a sinful decision. You can make a decision without praying, without consulting. You can be like Joshua charging off into AI without consulting the Lord, but even that, the Lord is going to turn that. What you meant for evil, God intends for good. He's going to turn that situation around. It's exactly what you're going to need for your sanctification, for your maturity, for your growth. The Lord is sovereign. You need to say that and believe it. Think about your husband, your wife right now. Thank you, Lord. Exactly what I need. You may not fully understand that, but she is exactly what you need. He is exactly what you need. And if you say it, if you believe it, if you believe that God is sovereign, then pray. Pray like you believe it. You often hear an Arminian say, well, if God is sovereign, why pray? We pray because God is sovereign. If God is not in control, then why would we pray? We pray because God is in control. Be thankful that God is in control and pray. You need to thank the Lord for all your circumstances and be grateful for them and trust God in them. Think about it. Praying, praying, knowing that the Lord is sovereign, praying displays the glory of God. His plans are settled.  He visually displays himself in answering prayer. His great power, his glory, his care, his love, his covenant keeping love, his faithfulness all displayed in answering prayer. So we glorify God displaying his sovereignty in our marriage. Next, the glory of God displayed in his providence and his providence. These two things are very closely related, but in his providence, we glorify God in our marriages and his providence in our marriage by displaying contentment with his providence. The providence is God executing his decrees in everyday life.  And so we display or we glorify God in reflecting our understanding of his providence in our marriage by being content. Now, one of the ways to do this with obeying God, in displaying God's glory through his providence is to be content with the marriage rolls that Rick was getting into a few moments ago. If wives would lovingly submit to their husbands as unto the Lord, no matter what the world says, that's what the Bible says, so wives submit yourselves to the Lord, to your husband as unto the Lord, men are to sacrificially love and lead their wives as Christ does the church. No matter what your flesh wants, men, that's what your responsibility is. Both of those complementary acts of love, complementary acts of sacrifice to lead and then to submit are unsustainable for the glory of God without a settled contentment in the providence of God. Let me say what I mean by that. Wives, sometimes very difficult right to submit to your husband because the direction that he's headed may be a direction that you don't see or don't agree with, but if you have a settled contentment in God's providence, a settled contentment in God's control and God's sovereignty, then in displaying the glory of God in his providence in your marriage, you simply trust God and say, this is the direction we're going because I'm going to, regardless if I understand it or disagree or not in this circumstance, I'm going to submit to the lead of my husband and I'm going to trust God for what happens. I trust God. I trust God's sovereignty is control. I trust him in his providence. This is going to work out. I'm going to trust God here.  Does that make sense? Glorify God in content with what happens because you're going to obey God. We can glorify God. Men, you can glorify God in his providence by sacrificially giving yourself, sacrificially denying yourself for your wife. You need to do this and this is what my wife wants. I see no compelling reason not to provide this for her. I'm going to provide this for her and you just trust God. You trust God. We can glorify God in our marriages when the glory of God is displayed in his wisdom, in his wisdom. God's conception of marriage works in a very pragmatic way and the world's conception of marriage does not. Marriage according to the Bible is extremely counter-cultural, getting more counter-cultural every day as the world moves and shifts. And so do marriage God's way and there's joy, there's bliss, there's intimacy, genuine love, teamwork. Think about those roles again for a minute. The house that runs so well demonstrates God's wisdom as set apart from the wisdom of this ignorant world. Just God's marriage done God's way, glorifies God in stark contrast with the world and what the world's conceptions of marriage are. Think about this world's reasoning when it comes to raising your kids.   Listen, you do raising your kids the way the Bible says to do it. Raise your kids in the nurturing atmosphere. Lord, spare the rod, spoil the child. You follow God's program for raising your kids. You can demonstrate a great contrast in a godly home as opposed to a worldly home. Just raise your kids according to God's plan. There's wisdom in it. There's wisdom in it. You can display number six, the glory of God displayed in his power. It's only possible to have a God glorifying marriage because you have been miraculously transformed by God and made a new creation in Christ. You've been born again. It's only possible to sustain a God glorifying marriage because you are empowered by God to live according to his statutes. You submit to the spirit of God, live yielded to the spirit of God in your marriage, and you're able to accomplish these things for the glory of God in your marriage. Number seven, the glory of Christ in his supremacy, the glory of Christ in his supremacy. Psalm 63 verse three says, your steadfast love is better than life. You must find superior satisfaction in God, superior satisfaction in Christ. I read this. Good. The power and impulse to carry through the self-denial and daily, monthly, yearly dying that will be required in loving an imperfect wife and loving an imperfect husband must come from a hope giving, soul sustaining, superior satisfaction in God. I don't think that our love for our wives or theirs for us will glorify God until it flows from a heart that delights in God more than marriage. So love God first. Love Christ supremely. If you have a supreme love for Christ, it's going to impact your marriage, will it not? I don't know how many brand new, you know, baby new, fresh out of the oven Christians that come through the door of our church that live here for a period of time. We could be preaching every week on lapsarianism and their marriages are getting better. Now why is that? Because they have a love for Christ. They want to honor Christ, they want to obey Christ, and it just has far-reaching tentacles into every area of your life. Just love Christ supremely, study his word, live for him, and your marriage is going to get better too. The Lord will see to it. Next number eight, the glory of God and his authority. The glory of God and his authority can be demonstrated in your marriage. Demonstrate submission to God and his word in all things. Make every decision according to what the word of God has to say. Spend time because you are under authority. Spend time together studying his word together. You are people under authority. Order your marriage in every way according to biblical principles. This is what you should be doing today.  The more of that that you put in place, the more that you live a God-glorifying marriage. There are certain basic foundational principles that husbands and wives should have together. Couples that pray together what? Stay together? So are you praying together? You should pray together. That's something that's very convicting to me and all of us. We need to pray. We need to pray like our marriages depend on it. We need to study the word of God together. We need to learn together. Those biblical principles, you put those in place because we are people under authority and we're to live our marriages the way that God planned for us to live our marriages. Nine, the glory of God in his purity. You're to be pure in your marriage. We've talked about that today. Drink water from your own cistern. Delight in the wife of your youth. You've been bought with a prize therefore glorify God in your body. Number ten, we're to display the glory of God in his holiness in our marriages. We glorify God in our marriages by displaying his holiness. He calls us to holiness. That involves confession. We've talked about that a little bit during the one-flesh sermon. We're to confess sin with one another. It's interesting in Joshua 7. I mentioned that a moment ago. Joshua racing into AI. But you think about Joshua 7. Joshua 7, Joshua confronts Achan for taking the accursed things. There's silver, gold, there's the Babylonian garment under his tent and so he goes to Achan to confront Achan in his same. And you remember the story. It just goes from the tribe down to the family and then down to the family. The whole thing is just getting closer and closer and closer. And in verse 19, Joshua says this to Achan. He says, my son, I beg you, this one he says, give glory to the Lord God of Israel and make confession to him. We give glory to God by making confession of our sin. Confess your sin to one another. He says, and tell me now what you've done. Do not hide it from me. Then what do they do with Achan? They stone him, his family, everything he owns. That was God's judgment. But here you give glory to God by making confession for your sin. Confess sin one another in your marriage. In that you acknowledge that God is righteous. And with Christians, it's not judgment that's hanging over your head, but certainly there's the chastening of the Lord.  You deserve to be chastened for your sin knowing that he is just. And you're going to accept those circumstances because you know you deserve it that it's right. It's right that the Lord would do it. In that you display the glory of God in his holiness. You're to repent of sin because you are to be holy just as he is holy. Anyone who really sees the tragedy or the horror of their own sin will have difficulty being discontent with circumstances they don't like. They're going to look at everything as, yeah, this is better than I deserve. They're going to look at everything as this is something I, if it's negative, the end of the day, it could all be chalked up to chastening, discipline from Heavenly Father who chastens you to produce the peaceable fruit of righteousness. And so hard to complain, hard to be discontent in those circumstances. When you come to trial, come to difficulty, come to circumstances, you need to chalk that up as chastening, chalk that up to something that you deserve. You're getting better than you deserve. You need to glorify God in that, praise God for it and just be content in your circumstances knowing that God is working all that for your good.  We are sinful in our marriages. So accept the discipline of God and don't complain. You deserve it, right? Next, number 11, the glory of God displayed in his grace. Be gracious to one another. As we looked at in Colossians chapter 3, I won't repeat that here for time's sake, but we're to display the glory of God in our marriages by acting with one another in grace, in grace. The Lord has acted with you according to grace. Act with your spouse according to grace. Be forgiving, be kind, be tenderhearted, be long suffering, as Colossians 3 there says. Number 12, we're to display the glory of God in his love, sacrificially love as Christ loves the church and gave himself for her. You should love your marriage itself. Hebrews chapter 13, back to that, that let the marriage bed be honorable or let marriage be honorable among all. That word honorable there, meaning precious. Marriage should be precious to you. Institution of marriage should be precious to you. When you speak of it, you know, you're not at work with the rest of the guys talking about marriage as a ball and chain.  And I love being married. Praise God for marriage. Praise God for marriage. It's awesome. Thank you, Lord, for my wife. Thank you for, you know, it's right. You glorify God in displaying his grace and in his love, loving marriage itself. Marriage should be precious to you. And listen, again, back to those types of things that should be precious to you. It doesn't matter how you feel about it. If you're thinking to yourself right now, boy, I just, oh, I don't feel that marriage is very precious to me. Repent of that and think in your mind and cultivate reasons for why marriage is precious, whether you feel like it's precious or not. Marriage is honorable among all. Marriage is precious. Marriage is a tremendous blessing whether you see it or not. And so acknowledge agreement with God's word that it is and train yourself, inform your understanding so that you see it that way too. It doesn't matter how you feel about it. It is that way, right? So it is honorable and we're to view it that way. Number 13, the glory of Christ and his obedience. Philippians chapter two says this, let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus. He goes on to say, he humbled himself and became obedient to the point of death, even the death of the cross. Remember witnessing to a guy, claimed to be a Christian and said that he's just tired and got into conversation about his marriage, just tired of his wife, tired of his life, and was going to divorce. I said, well, you can't do that. Well, what do you mean I can't do that? Of course I can do that. Well, the Bible says you can't do that. Well, we're all sinners, I can do that. You're just brazenly just disregarding clear command of Scripture. No, you can't do that. The Lord says you can't do that. You have no basis on which to divorce. The Lord says you cannot. So if you say, well, I'm going to anyway, then you're just blatant rebellion against God. We're to glorify Christ in our obedience to obey the Lord in all things in our marriage. If God says to do this and just do it, that should settle it. That's the way that we're to live. And it's amazing how many Christians, you know, so-called contemplate divorce or contemplate doing this, that, or the other thing in their marriage when it just brazenly, blatantly, obviously goes against clear commands of Scripture. You just obey God. Just obey the Bible. And that is a big first planted footstep to progress in your marriage to making things work. You just got to have that settled resolve in your mind. The Bible says it. I'm going to do it. And that settles it, you know. Next, we're to reflect the glory of God in his patience, in his patience. Be patient with one another. Long suffering. This all came when we looked at Colossians chapter three. The glory of God in his forgiveness. Forgiving one another even as God in Christ forgave you. Forgiving one another. Glory of God in his forgiveness. Number 16, the glory of Christ in his humility. To humble yourself. It takes a lot of humility to be in a marriage. You have to humble yourself. And I tell you, remember many times in which my failure to humble myself caused shame and a humbling of myself in marriage. You don't humble yourself. You get humiliated. Just humble yourself. That's a constant problem. A constant fight.  And you display the glory of Christ in his humility in your marriage by humbling yourself. Goes against the world, right? Against the world's conceptions of marriage because marriage is a place where people bow up and assert their rights.  You don't assert your rights. But that's the way the world does it. Number 17, you're to display the glory of Christ in his body, the church. You glorify God in employing the gifts. As a married couple, the Lord has given you gifts to serve the church with, to serve the body with. In 1 Peter chapter four, in verse 11, the Bible says this, if anyone speaks, let him speak as the oracles of God. If anyone ministers, let him do it as with the ability which God supplies. That in all things, God may be glorified through Jesus Christ to whom belong the glory and the dominion forever and ever amen. Just by using your gifts as a husband and wife, tag team, Priscilla and Aquila in the church serving the body, you glorify God in using the gifts that he's given you. You glorify Christ in his body. Number 18, you display the glory of God in his mission, in his mission. Think about Priscilla and Aquila there. Glorifying Christ in his mission. Second Corinthians chapter four, verse 15 says this, for all things are for your sakes, that grace having spread through the many, what does that mean? The grace of God having spread. It's evangelism. It's a mission of God. That's the glory of God, the grace of God being spread is in the Great Commission. You're preaching the gospel. And it says that grace having spread through the many may cause thanksgiving to a bound to what? Do you remember? To the glory of God. But to the glory of God. You glorify God in sharing the gospel. You can do that as a married couple. You should do that as a married couple. I like Priscilla and Aquila and all of that for the glory of God. You're just bringing more people to him to put in the Holy Eucharist. The choir in heaven is just getting bigger because you're bringing people into the kingdom. That's what you're to do. Glory God, glorify God in his mission. 19, the glory of God in his worship. The glory of God in his worship. In Psalm chapter 50, verse 23, he says, whoever offers me praise glorifies me. As a couple, you worship the Lord. You worship the Lord together. I like the Puritans conception of the home. It is to be a little church with the dad as the pastor.  You praise the Lord with your marriage by doing all of these things and living in such a way that honors the Lord in your marriage. You praise him. Praise and worship him in your home, in the car, with the kids. So the glory of God in his worship. 20, the glory of God displayed in your unity. The glory of God displayed in your unity. Romans 15, verse 5 says this, may the God who gives perseverance and encouragement grant you to be of the same mind with one another according to Christ Jesus so that with one accord you may with one voice glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. We're to be unified. We're to be of the same mind. We're to be of the same voice. We're to be in one accord. And being of the same mind, the same voice of one accord, we glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. Mark 10, what God has joined together, let no man separate. God has put you together, one mind, one voice. Romans 8, yet in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. For I'm persuaded that neither death nor life nor angels nor principalities nor powers nor things present nor things to come nor height nor depth nor any other created things shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord. We are unified. Unified to Christ in our redemption. Unified to one another in marriage where to display that unity. Knowing God and cherishing God and valuing the glory of God above all things including your spouse is the key to living marriage to the glory of God. Oftentimes I hear, we'll talk about this probably a little bit during the Q and A but often I hear that balancing of these things is people have challenges with that that somehow God is for their marriage and for their family, all those things, it really is the reverse. You are for the glory of God, your marriage is for the glory of God, your family is for the glory of God and if we can keep ourselves individually focused on faith in Christ and living wholeheartedly for him with him as supreme then other things fall into place. Seek first the kingdom of God, all these things will be added to you. We need to look at God as supreme and have as our supreme end the glory of God and our marriages will be more in line with glorifying God. Let me conclude with this. This is a poem and it's a poem on marital love I found. This is the very end of it and it's called Love Her More and Love Her Less. I like this. It says, yes, love her. We're talking about his wife, right? Yes, love her. Love her more than life. Oh, love the woman called your wife. Go love her as your earthly best beyond this venture not but lest your love become a fool's facade. Be sure to love her less than God. That's something we consider, right? It is not wise or kind to call an idol by sweet names and fall as in humility before a likeness of your God. Above your best beloved on earth, the God alone who gives her worth, she will know in second place that your great love is also grace and that your high affections now are flowing freely from a vow beneath these promises first made to you by God, nor will they fade for being rooted by the stream of heaven's joy which you esteem and cherish more than breath and life that you may give it to your wife.  So you love your wife, love God supremely. You want to have a marriage that honors God then love God supremely above your own desires, your own affections, above your own wishes, your own wants. Love God supremely above your own marriage, above your wife, but everything else, everything else is second. I love that. To God alone who gives her worth, she'll know in second place that your great love is also grace. You have to put the preeminence of Christ as the aim and object and thrust and drive of our marriage and convince if you do that in genuine that you can rescue your marriage from all kinds of problems and difficulties and really comes down to, and you know this to be true, the vast majority of the problems in a marriage are simply selfishness, self-indulgence, self-will, unrestrained gratification of fleshly lusts, your own mind, your own thoughts, your own heart, your own will, your own resolve, your own determination. It's just selfishness, selfishness, selfishness, selfishness and placing God as first and foremost and looking to him, if you're in Christ, your chief aim is to deny yourself, to take her across and follow him.  Does that make sense? All right, let's pray. Father in heaven, thank you Lord for this time to talk about marriage or to just re-center our focus, to take our eyes maybe from the right or from the left and to more center them on Christ, to avoid those ditches of making excuses for our sin or the other ditch of just pounding legalism and unrealistic expectations of our spouse or unrealistic expectations of our marriage and just seeking, Lord, to live for you according to your word, according to your wisdom, not the world's, not our own and in that, God, in seeking you first, having a marriage that honors you. So strengthen us to do it. Anyone who says marriage is not hard work, this isn't married. We realize, Lord, acknowledge that in of ourselves we are incapable of living this ideal, so we need you, God. We're desperately in need of you. We need your spirit now, a convictus of sin, guide us and direct us by your spirit, empower us by your spirit to obey, to humble ourselves, to seek the good of our spouse above our own, to seek the glory of God above that. And Lord, let us have relationships, God, marriages that glorify you. I pray, God, that this would be a time where we can put down those things, one, just to have the time to think through it as such a blessing, just to sort of stop for a moment and to contemplate or to think on you, think on your word and then to think on our marriage in light of that, time to stop and to contemplate and to think on those things where we need to repent, think on those things where we need to change. And I pray, God, that starting now that we would do just that, there would be things that we would commit even now to doing. And then by the time this small conference comes around next year, Lord, we would, by your grace, see progress in our marriage for your glory. So help us, we want to not simply be hearers or we want to be doers of your word. So strengthen us to that end. And again, all for your glory, God, all for displaying your perfections. You are our glorious, matchless God. And we thank you, Lord. In Jesus' name, amen.


The St. Lucia Blood Bank Service recently received a donation of approximately 200 cases of petro-molter and crystal-clear water from Hennikin St. Lucia Limited, which will be provided to individuals who donate blood. The donation of the petro-molter and crystal-clear water was made to the Blood Bank Departments at the Millennium Heights Medical Complex and the St. Jude Hospital. Hennikin St. Lucia Medical Technologist at the Blood Bank Department, OKUH, Karen Lui expressed heartfelt gratitude to Hennikin St. Lucia Limited for the support they continue to provide to the St. Lucia Blood Bank Service over the years.

Hey guys it's Kara so you might have noticed we haven't uploaded any new videos in the past week or so and there's a reason for that which I'll explain. But first and foremost I want to thank you guys so much for tuning in to this channel and subscribing. If you guys don't know I'm Michael's girlfriend, we live together and he's always talking about YouTube and I have on camera experience so eventually I decided to give it a go here on this channel. We weren't expecting much but things really took off from there and just three months we have videos get tons of views and a whole bunch of new subscribers. I've had so much fun doing this and connecting with you guys. It's really changed my life and I'm so excited to keep this going. There are so many different types of videos I want to make for you guys. Sadly this channel got demonetized last week. It's not that we did anything wrong, Michael's contract with an MCN came to an end and the channel was changed in the back end. We are in contact with YouTube who told us that they should be able to get us back up and running in no time. In the meantime you guys can find me on Instagram at Cara underscore EMI. Happy holidays and I'll see you guys in 2020.


the TechCrunch disrupts here in London, and who are you? I'm Alvaro Rames, the head of the International Business Development of Moja. So Moja, you just launched Moja. Yeah. Are you all the team from Volkswagen? No, we are coming from different companies and from outside of Volkswagen, and we are based in Berlin, and that's it. Yeah. It says right here, you need the best talent, the most visionary minds. We need people who want to change the world with us, so new mobility moves, what is that? Well, mobility in urban areas is really changing. There are new services, obviously Uber is the most known of them, but there are many that are changing the way we move, and we have a vision of in 10 years or so, that all urban mobility is going to be autonomous, it's going to be electric, and it's going to be shared. So our goal is to build those services and to build also the vehicles that are going to give those services. That's a very ambitious goal, and we need very good people quite quickly, by the way. So, 2026 is going to be awesome, it's going to be an amazing world, right? Well, yeah. Where do we get until then? Because right now we have a company like Uber, which is completely awesome and amazing, for $100 billion or something, and you click and there's an Uber, so are you going in that direction? Are you going to work in that kind of market? We are already investing in Get, which is... 100 cities around the world with a very strong presence in Europe, and we are investing in different companies, also startups, and our goal is to really start also building internally cooling services for our new mobility, and yeah. So it's not going to be overnight, and there are going to be things that are going to work, and other things that do not work, but our goal is to try new services, yeah. Yesterday was a presentation by a CEO. All the harms, yeah. And he was talking about, I think, shuttle buses? Yes, that's right. What is that? Is it something you're doing already? We're building services, dynamic routing shuttle buses, so you order, you want to go from one point to another point in a city, and with a vehicle, which is a van, really, adapted to with Wi-Fi connection, leather seats, really comfortable, nice lighting, comes and picks you up. And then it does a route depending on the demand in the market, and you know, a very flat rate and very cheap. I think my mom says Volkswagen makes the best vans. Yeah. So that would be a van with like eight seats or something like that. We are considering different options, and also it's going to vary depending on the market, because obviously, for instance, then. Is it available? Yeah, well, that's how we're going to start, but we'll be building specifically design vehicles for these type of services, yeah. So I think I saw the CEO of Volkswagen, he did an announcement one or two months ago about all the electric cars that are going to come out. It's a big deal. Our goal is to have, the group will have about 30% of sales, which is about three million cars a year, fully electric, battery electric vehicles. Again, to 2025. That will include all type of vehicles, also include vehicles that will be shared between different clients, not only owned vehicles. Have you been in a self-driving car? No, I have not. It's pretty awesome. It's amazing, right? Yeah. But why don't we, I mean, Google has been talking about these for like six years. Yeah. Why are they not just in streets here? What are people waiting for? I think it needs support from the legislation. It needs support from many elements into the, how the city works. But it's going to be very, very fast. The thing is that as you highlighted before, it's not going to happen overnight. They're going to be already testing in cities like, in areas like Pittsburgh or Singapore.  Because there's a lot of people dying in car accidents, we need to fix that. It needs to be lots of stuff done with it. Is that part of your also vision, is the security? The security, the improvement of the traffic and the environment. If you replace all current vehicles for electric vehicles, what you're going to reduce is the pollution in the city, but the traffic will remain the same. So you also need to have autonomous driving, which is going to increase the flow of that mobility and also shared. So there are less vehicles on the street. And that way also you get rid of the parking spaces in the city and there will be more space for people. And so it's Volkswagen, the biggest car company in the world? By number of vehicles, yes. It is the largest company in the world right now, yeah. So you have a big responsibility to do this.  Well, we are transforming the company, which is a hardware company after all, and manufacture great vehicles into a service provider and mobility provider, which is a big transformation that other areas like PC makers, like IBM, did many years ago, transforming from a hardware manufacturer into a service provider.   Yeah, we're looking into different startup opportunities and investments. We're looking into largest investments, but we are also looking into building our own product that we're needed. So you're putting resources into cool stuff, I guess. Yeah, yeah, we are putting... You don't want to talk about all of it. No, because some of them we don't even know yet. We have to build a lot of the strategy and the areas that we want to focus. This is a huge market, it's several trillion euros market, and we cannot cover everything. So we need to decide where is it that we are going to build, where is it that we're going to invest, and where is it that we're going to partner with other companies? Because Uber is quite cool, but there's a lot of Toyota Prius out there. There's not so many Volkswagen Prius, what do you call them? Is it also, the thought here is like, what's going on with all these Priuses? Let's do even better than that, because it's only hybrid. Let's go electric. Yeah, we believe that people will go directly into electric mobility. There's the challenge of the anxiety of the range of vehicles that is being overcome with longer-range vehicles, and also with better infrastructure. We announced just a week ago a big agreement with the biggest manufacturers in Europe to build the largest high-power charging infrastructure in Europe. And this is something we truly believe, and we're betting big for it. Nice, so you're investing in Volkswagen is fast charging? Yeah. But how about battery swap? I love the better place idea that was at once, where you would just drive in, and in one minute you swap the battery and continue. That's not what we are focusing, is we are considering the fast charging as the best solution for the needs of the customer. Then you have to sit and wait for 20-30 minutes in order to charge, which is fast, but still you have to wait. It is true, but if you are talking about autonomous driving, and you're talking about robotexies, the time that you're going to wait is not that one, it's the time that the vehicle comes to you. The vehicle should be already charged by the time you get it. All right, cool. Thank you.


Kenyan businesses could lose some Nigerian customers, and that's because the indigenous people of Biafra have asked its members to boycott travelling with Kenya airways or buying the country's products. The group's head of membership and mobilisation in Australia, Kennedy Ochi, made this known in a statement today. The decision is connected with the reports that AIPOP leader in Amdicano was arrested in and extradited from Kenya. The East African country has denied having a hand in it, but AIPOP and Inamdicano's family argue that the secessionist was arrested and extradited with help from Kenya.


My Weekly Fragrance Rotation. Welcome to the channel where fashion meets fragrance. My name is Kevin Samuel, Justine Godfather. And guys, in today's video, we're going to talk about my weekly fragrance rotation. Sit back, relax and enjoy. Shout out to the CIA. What's going on, you modern sexy savages. Guys, I've heard you. You're in the house while we're sheltering in place during this CV. And you've asked for more content. In particular, you said, what are you wearing during the week? Your request is going to be answered today. We're going to talk about my weekly fragrance lineup. And if you dig it, we'll make this a standing segment on the channel. Let's get into it. Shout out to the CIA. You want to love FBI. You want to become part of the movement. Make sure you join me on Patreon for exclusive video and live stream content. Join me on that platform for things you will only see there. Details down in the description. First up on Mondays. On Mondays, I tend to come into the world thinking, you know what? A lot of stuff needs to get done. A lot of stuff's on my plate. I want to wear something that has presence. It's kind of neutral, not off-putting. Monday tends to be a lot of meeting days when the world is not like this. And on Monday, I wore none other than Lalabo Musk 25. Look at the reviews. Anybody that knows anything about fragrances will say this is probably one of the best musk fragrances on the planet. Pure, minimalistic, incredible fragrance. The only downside about this is the city exclusive from Lalabo, so it's harder to get your hands on. But if you got it, you know this stuff is fantastic. My Mondays started off right with Musk 25. On Tuesday, I broke out Dolce & Gabbana Velvet Incenso. If you've already seen my review on this fragrance, you know I dig this peppery incense. A little bit goes a long way. And on Tuesday, Tuesday, Tuesday, I just like to kind of get it started. I kind of like to go into turbo mode and incense really does that for me. Velvet Incenso is a great addition to my collection, getting a lot more use in the days of head. Velvet Incenso, great for Tuesday.  Now I've done a full review on this, so I'm not going to spoil it. But I will tell you a sweet, sexy, sophisticated amber fragrance. It just turns heads. Every time I wear this, especially when it catches the wind, people are like, what? Who is that? Who smells so good? And the upside for me is not all the people wear this in my area. So I get even more love. So even sheltering in place or when I go outdoors a little bit, it just kind of catches the breeze. And you know what?  Wednesday, Amber Royale, great day. Thursday, bond number nine, signature scent, bond number nine perfume. I love this fragrance because it's simple. Musk, Tonka, Rose, Oud, and a big dose of ISOE, Molecular One. Guys, I have digged this fragrance since day one. And I will tell you on men's skin or on women, it takes a different character. This stuff is just a sexy, sexy beast. Every time I wear this, man, I'm telling you, I put out some hammers this week because I knew I was going to be doing this list. But every time I wear this, I remember why I love it, why it will always stay in my collection. Bond number nine, signature scent. If you like what I like, you will dig this one. Oh, dig it. Thank God it's Friday, Friday, and Friday was a good day for Oud for Greatness. Yes, the hype train on this one is well-deserved. I love this stuff. Now, a lot of people are comparing it to a dirty version of Baccarat Rouge 540 and me, I don't get that. I don't get that. I think it's its own fragrance by its own rights. I will be doing a standalone review on this stuff, but I'm going to tell you, this house is actually doing some things right. And man, oh man, is this a compliment monster, a conversation starter. Oud for Greatness, great fragrance, great for Friday, great for any day, especially in the springtime. One fragrance house above them all, and that house is Chanel. And on Saturday, on Suits Saturday, we wore Chanel Cormandel, arguably a masterpiece fragrance of a masterful line. Chanel Cormandel is a patchouli, is patchouli done right. Oftentimes, patchouli tends to be a little bit earthy, a little bit too hippy, but when you have something that's more smooth, more sophisticated, a little bit smooth, sophisticated, kind of classy. Chanel Cormandel, anyone that knows anything about fragrances will say this one. Even if they hate the line, they love this one. Chanel Cormandel, great fragrance during the springtime, great in a suit, great in a t-shirt and jeans, great anytime. And I'm glad I actually wore it on Saturday. Then we get to Sunday, and normally you want to kind of cool it out, especially because you have bangers all during the week. But I said, nope, we're going to swing for the fences with YSL 24. Sandalwood, sandalwood, sandalwood. Probably the holy grail of sandalwood fragrances before it was discontinued was Killian Sacred Wood. Luckily, I have a whole lot of it in the reserve, so I'll never be without it. Right after that, people tend to dig Tamdow or Santal 33. For me, it's this one. I like this one as much, not more, but as much because, one, I got a whole lot of it, too, because it can be worn any season, any reason, year-round, and this strikes me as a little bit more sophisticated. Sacred Wood is a little creamier. Well, this is a little bit drier. That means you can actually get more use out of this, but this age to that age, any way you're dressed. YSL 24, a great sandalwood fragrance on Sunday. Glad I have it in my collection. If you don't have it, guys, if you like sandalwood fragrances, get a sample of it, try it, or when we get out of this whole shelter in place, get to your local demons and go. Wipe the bottles down first. Ah, he was right. Yep, he was right. Yep, YSL 24, fantastic sandalwood fragrance. Guys, do me a favor, hit me up in the comment section. Let me know what you wore Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday. Write down your fragrance rotation. Let's share this information, especially while we're doing this whole shelter in place. Some people are about to get back out in the world and kind of start moving around. You want some good recommendations to get some conversations started, inquiring minds would like to know. Godfather out. Hey guys, whether look, style, or life, whether personal or professional, you can level up and be your personal best each and every day. If you're interested in any of that, do us both a favor, follow the link in the description and book your one-on-one session with me. Details down in the description. Peace.


I always had this desire that I wanted to work in developing countries and I also loved engineering and designing and making things, but I struggled for a long time to figure out exactly how you could bring those two together of engineering and working in developing countries that would actually be helpful in a way and not actually cause more harm in development projects. And now through Takataka plastics, I feel like I've found those answers and so that it's really exciting and really gratifying and I feel like I am doing the purpose that I was called to in life. Our goal is to locally transform plastic waste into quality and affordable construction materials like these wall tiles. So these can be put in people's bathrooms or kitchens and we can make them stronger and cheaper than the ceramic tiles currently on the market. When we heard that hospitals were lacking protective equipment for the doctors and nurses that they had no face shields, we're like, oh, face shields, they're made from plastic. That's what we do. Maybe we can help here. So we went to our workshop and started this experimenting with all different kinds of recycled plastic materials and other things that we could find to try to make face shields. This is one of them. We took it to the doctors and nurses at a clinic and showed it to them and they were really excited about the idea of having a face shield and they told like one guy even said he didn't even want to take it off. It was actually protecting him a lot. He did a procedure where pus came up and sprayed him in the face and so he was really thankful that he was wearing the face shield because it protected him. Personally, like being away from my family right now is always waiting in the back of my mind but I think that being here in Uganda and being able to help solve this need of protective equipment from the doctors that don't have any, it's exactly what I've been called to do. So thankful that we're able to have the team and the resources to be able to do that and hopefully we can be able to do more. So this is our workshop where we make the tiles. These are our prototype machines that we've built. This is the shredder that we use for chopping the plastic into really small flakes and then over here is the extruder. We take the chopped flakes, we put it in the hopper and then it gets extruded and pushed and melted out the ends and we put it into molds.


Were you able to see like difference in the participants at the end of the programs or like down the road even if you trained them again? Again when it with some participants we'll see them later on down the road a couple of weeks months even and they'll come up to me and they'll say oh my god thank you for that program you know it really helped me and they tell me about like where they're at right now and what they've been up to and yeah so there's stuff like that that's not really recorded anywhere because it just kind of they just stop in or they they see you somewhere and say well thank you for that you know it really helped me you know see things and really helped me change my life around and yeah there was a few times that I had people do that to me right yeah yeah what's what's sort of kind of going back to that initial acknowledgement that you were given a program and you needed to kind of revamp it to be more culturally appropriate when you were doing things like that where you did you experience challenges when you were trying to do this I don't know not really not too much challenges because it was it wasn't very hard to you know incorporate simple things such as doing the smudging before program and you know talking about what they're thankful for and you know in incorporating those seven grandfather teachings into the program because there's so much out there that you can utilize right when it comes to that and when it came to certain topics you know it's just from even from my own experience from my own things I've learned and gathered and know like I was able to incorporate it easily like especially when it came down to for instance there was one topic on alcohol so we had to teach these teens about you know drinking alcohol you know the the risks and and behaviors and what could happen and all this and sure we had to stick to some of that content that was that we had been provided in the binder but then I would also bring in a guest speaker who can speak about the traditional aspects about you know that how that alcohol affects our spirit and how alcohol was never part of our culture before yeah and how our spirit becomes something else when when that's that when you consume that that alcohol so it was stuff like that to incorporate you know to make it more yeah like have that cultural content for them to really grab on to I think yeah it just I guess the more stuff that you you learn and gather you know throughout your work experience and your travels and you pick up a lot of stuff right and then you can really incorporate that into programming sure yeah yeah other conversations that you you and I have had before we talked about kind of like jumping through hoops or hurdles to get things done yeah where these kind of experiences that you've had at the health center at the native Friendship Center where there are things like that to to overcome or whether they was that a pretty easy to work with environment yeah yeah it was a pretty easy environment because already being I guess you like saying an Aboriginal or native organization to do stuff such as smudging and and things like that was easy yeah we didn't have to go through any protocols or anything like that to get yeah yeah the only challenges that we would find when it came to certain programming is we when we wanted to do land-based stuff if we didn't have the land to do it what like if we wanted to incorporate like sweats we didn't have our own lodge to do them and stuff like that yeah yeah yeah so as a challenge and like how did you kind of navigate that if challenge I guess we just had to look for resource people in the community that were able to conduct those or had their own lodges and you know it's just getting getting in touch with them and sitting with them and seeing if they can be of assistance to the program as part of your evaluation then like is it pretty easy to recognize that you've met objectives that you intended to meet at the start of the year or that you met goals yeah because usually when we at the beginning of the year when we do work plans and stuff like that right we have to evaluate on we have to look at our our objectives and where they met then why weren't they met and kind of making little like write down an explanation of why a certain thing wasn't done or what maybe why it didn't work out so great and I was just thinking about where else like another place where I worked it was an alternative school and there I had I as a support not only to the students but to the teachers I incorporated some programming into the school and because it was a school for mental health and addictions students I had to really think about okay what's gonna help these students who are having mental health issues and addictions and reading up on stuff and listening to you know certain things in the news about mental health and how we can help students with mental health so what I did was incorporate a lot of like start physical activities try and do something once a day with the students so what we did was actually we started off with a walking program and then it eventually got to doing going out to the gym every day at noon we also had counselors that that had started in the health center that as part of being in this alternative school and to help yours like themselves with mental health they had to see a counselor while participating in this being a part of this school you have to take care of your holistic health so we're taking care of your emotional and mental so they had to see a counselor on a regular basis who was located in the same building and then we also had an elder who is available to for them if they wanted to see and sit with an elder and then of course incorporating culture into the school with providing language classes weekly having an elder come in to teach language and then there was also a sharing circle weekly which it was kind of a tough start because a lot of young people don't like to share in sharing circles so it was kind of just like the staff that would kind of talk yeah but eventually the students started to share a little bit more ever because we kept it constant like every week at this time and this day it was circle so that kept going and they eventually got comfortable and started sharing and smudging so that was I helped with that that alternative school get some programming going it was at during your time at the health center yeah yeah were any of these any easier or harder to measure the success on again we're just looking at attendance wise like the participants and how much they would share or how much they would show up for certain things like it was tough when like some of the students had counseling appointments for instance and they didn't want to go in the appointment so they just wouldn't come to school yeah yeah or they'd say they have to go because you know they had to be home early or something sure yeah but it but you know we just measured through attendance for programs like that certain programs there was more in-depth and longer evaluations that had to be done and this was with that program the choices program because they wanted documentation on how much success there was from beginning to end because it was a 10-week program so evaluations had to come from the participants themselves like the youth and the parents and as well the volunteers had to evaluate how the program went for 10 weeks so there was so much paperwork and evaluations that had to be done and I know again from experience some of the youth don't like to fill those because there was also another form that had to be filled out every week that they finished program and it was it was getting too much it was right yeah it was like this is too much evaluation but we tried to get it filled out as much as we could like even for the parents who at the because the pages there it was 10-week program so they had to try and evaluate their child for that one night that certain topic of anything changed in their child right yeah and sometimes they would just write one word answer so it wasn't even worth all the photocopying yeah yeah so some were good but some weren't yeah yeah yeah yeah do you think I know you haven't been there in a couple of do you think they're still doing that program it had stopped for a year almost and they're just starting it back up again yeah so I don't know if they actually started the program but I know they were trying to recruit more youth that partake in that yeah yeah yeah it was a good program because I had people from the island wanting to come to this program in Sudbury and they would drive their kids every day right yeah well not every day every week to the program what is indigenous education for me like I'm thinking so you have the Western education where you're going to an indigenous program in a post-secondary institute learning from professors indigenous professors through textbook yeah and then you have another side of indigenous education but it I don't know if you really want to call it in education where you're learning from elders and traditional knowledge keepers and it's not education where you sit in a classroom all day you know you're you're with them on the land or in ceremony or in lodges and so there's that kind of indigenous education you talked about wanting to make sure that the culture the programs you had included culture mm-hmm and you had talked about this idea of seeking balance like it is that same idea of seeking balance part of indigenous education also well because when we're I guess in our our teachings and our culture we're always driving for balance right holistic you know your emotional spiritual physical and what am I missing emotional physical spiritual oh and mental yeah so we always want that balance right so when when we when we we're not getting enough of one of them we're off balance like if you're not feeding that physical aspect there's your there's something physically going to be wrong you're health wise there's something that's going to be wrong or even with your spiritual if you're not feeding that spiritual aspect whether it's cultural ways or you know if people believe in more Catholic ways or whatever their spirituality is if you don't have that there's an imbalance there and so when I do programming I try to make sure that we have all of that incorporated into the program so people can feed their spirit and having all all of that incorporated now you also talked about languages in programs from your perspective how like how how does language fit into indigenous education we're always told that our language is so important right we have we should know or try to speak our language because there's not like there's only I guess a certain population that can speak it and if we're not going to learn it now it's eventually gonna you know kind of disappear so a lot of people now are really learning their language
