       Each partner in the marriage is responsible to do his or her part. That’s in how they act and how they treat. That involves give and take. That involves sharing the responsibility of caring for the children. You don’t have to take on these responsibilities if you don’t want to. God doesn’t demand everyone get into a relationship and get married. Isn’t all this talk of mine just vain though? Am I just talking to the drywall? Well, in a way perhaps what I am saying about responsibility is vain. That’s because it certainly is true that a person needs to have values in the first place in order to implement those values. Where do we get our values, as Christians? Where do we get our morality? How we are supposed to live? All these things come from the Bible. If you don’t read the Bible, or know it, or follow it, then what I am saying is indeed vain. It’s pointless for you. Unless, perhaps, just perhaps, you decide today that you are going to change directions. Perhaps things have come tumbling toward the edge of the cliff in your family situation. Well, it’s not too late. Pick up your Bible and start reading it. Start praying to God about what you should do.
