If weâre going to be realistic itâs going to take a healthy dose of skepticism. This may seem strange to you, but Iâve been thinking a lot about this and I think skepticism is a large part of a good marriage. Skepticism. It doesnât sound right. Itâs not culturally and politically correct in itâs sound, Iâll admit that. Weâre not supposed to be skeptical I donât think. Weâre supposed to be loving and trusting and glowing and going and all those positive words but no, I think skepticism is a really good word and I will tell you why. Because we live in a fallen world. And, because we live in the reality of Romans 7, that good that we would do we donât do and the bad that we donât want to do we do.
