Independence Day: Celebrating Religious Freedom in Our Country and in Christian Marriage

Independence Day is a time when Americans think about and celebrate their freedom. America was founded for religious freedom because the Founding Fathers did not want the country to be the same as England, which did not have much freedom. From the perspective of having a Christian marriage, your focus should be on God rather than the secular world, which constantly tells us which way we should be living. When your focus is on God and you can block out the other noise, you will feel freer in your relationship with your spouse.

“You, my brothers, were called to be free. But do not use your freedom to indulge the sinful nature; rather, serve one another in love.” Galatians 5:13

Independence might not seem achievable when you’re married. However, independence can actually be much sweeter when you are dependent on your spouse. It comes with having relational trust with your spouse and depending on them to do the right thing and live as God intended them to. When you depend on each other wholeheartedly in your Christian marriage, you can give each other the room you need to have some independence and be your own person.

Every Christian marriage has to have some boundaries. You don’t have the same personality or feelings as your spouse, and that’s how it should be. That’s when having open lines of communication are essential for a healthy Christian marriage and can help you feel free at the same time. Conversations can be difficult to have, but they get easier over time. Doing so can help you respect your spouse’s boundaries and vice versa so you can feel like you are your own person, while still being completely one with your spouse.

Whether you’re newly married or you’ve been married for several years, you might feel like you’ve lost a sense of who you are as a person. The secular world will try to tell you who you are, but the secular world also does not follow God’s Word at all. Distance yourself from the noise of the outside world and focus on God’s plan for you and your Christian marriage. You might be surprised at how much more you feel at peace and discover what you’ve been searching for.
