The Walk of Love

For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them. (St Matthew 18:20)

When a husband and wife stands strong together in their faith, it brings them closer. They understand the meaning of true faith and trusting that God is with them. Often times, you have a spouse that stands off away from God, making one to feel that they are alone with Christ. One believes that having God in their heart is all they need, and their life style remains the same. While the other believes that living with God, life simply changes; we can be sure that when both come together in God's name, together they will walk in God's love.

The Old and New Life

Therfore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. (2 Corinthians 5:17)

A new year means a new beginning, sometimes in our marriages we have to let go of the old things; memories that are painful, trouble hearts that need mending, and relationships that are struggling. As we walk with God, He gives us the strength to overcome any obstacles and storms we face. Let God renew your heart and start a new year with many blessings that God has stored for you, your faith and believing in Him opens up a new life.

Romance In Our Marriage

Let her be as the loving hind and pleasant roe; let her breasts satisfy thee at all times; and be thou ravished always with her love. (Proverbs 5:19)

Romance in a marriage is priceless, this is the most desirable feeling for a husband and a wife to have in a relationship. It is the master piece of art to keep the fire burning in the love you share; real love does not die after the newness of a relationship; real love stays burning like a candle. Take the time to know one another in your deepest intimacy. The key to a strong marriage is when you express your affection with passion. Allow God to fulfill your spirit for an everlasting love.

Sweet to the Soul

Pleasant words are as an honeycomb, sweet to the soul, and health to the bones. (Proverbs 16:24)

A wise person seeks a merry heart, he strives to bring happiness and kindness to his marriage. Sharing pleasant words and knowing when to appreciate one another; brings contentment to the heart. God's words gives us understanding to love one another with a true spirit, and a sound heart. The lips of the wise brings sweet words to satisfy the soul.

The Power of Patience

Now the God of patience and consolation grant you to be likeminded one towards another according to Christ Jesus: That ye may with one mind and one mouth glorify God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. ( Romans 15:5:6)

When we enter into marriage, we seldom come together with patience. This is a trait that not everyone has, sometimes we find our self's working hard at it. God reminds us that we must be likeminded one towards another; patience comes with love and self discipline, a true connection of God's promises.

Tune Of Love

The Lord thy God in the midst of thee is mighty; he will save, he will rejoice over thee with joy; he will rest in his love, he will joy over thee with singing. (Zephaniah 3:17)

Life is a challenging journey we face everyday. We are so wrapped up in our busy days, that we sometimes forget to enjoy the now with our husbands, wives, children, friends and family. God tells us that we must take each day to rejoice, live happy, share the love, sing aloud. When we live in harmony, it is God that brings us together. Rejoice and sing to the tune of love.

Welcome to Living In Praise, I would like to share with all of you a book I published through CrossBooks Publishers. What is True Love in a Marriage". This book is about the love we find in a marriage and the words of the creator of Love, God's words are inspirational and powerful, it is an unspeakable gift.

My book is for all those who are seeking the word of God. The words of love are powerful in our hearts. We can build a meaningful life if we only allow ourselves to be true to our feelings. In 1 John 4:8, God said, "He that loveth not, knoweth not God; for God is love." God's words remind us that we can find happiness when we don't feel the love, and we can find comfort when we are feeling alone and separate from the person we married. We don't have to be alone, there are many that need an inspirational word, just someone who will listen and can share a word with you.

I hope this book will inspire you to pick up a copy. It is a great gift to give to someone special in your life. God has created this awesome love and has joined together man and woman to share as one. We must be thankful for his unspeakable gift. What greater gift can you give to someone you love than your True Love.

Finding the True Meaning of Love

Growing up in Reedley, Raymond Muro never expected he’d be married to a published author.

When he married his wife, Lupe, 37 years ago, neither of them expected their marriage would serve as inspiration for her book. But last week, Lupe Muro’s first book “What is True Love in a Marriage?” was released nationwide.

Muro contacted Christian publishing company Cross Books last year, curious about the process. The Los Angeles native had never planned to write a book, but the more she read the Bible, the more she became inspired by God’s word.

When her granddaughter bought her two little notebooks several years ago, she began writing down her thoughts.

“The more I read into the word of God, I was receiving messages for me to do something with those thoughts,” Muro said.

Listening to Christian radio station K-LOVE, Muro heard messages assuring listeners that they had a purpose in life, and they should utilize their talents. She never really took it personally, until one message stood out.

“One day I was listening to the radio, and she said something about using your thoughts to get God's word out,” Muro said. “I looked at the little book and thought, 'Am I supposed to do something with this?'”

She took it as a sign, and searched for the phone number of the Cross Books representative she had previously spoken with. Just as she hung up after misdialing – another “sign” solidified her decision to go forth with a book. Muro said the phone rang – and it happened to be Cross Books on the other end. She took six months to write a rough draft, and submitted her first manuscript in April. Within a week, the publishing company called with the good news that they accepted it.

“Everything just came together,” Muro said. “I knew that I had to put God's word out there. I believe that as long as you have God with you, he's going to give you the strength to work through things.”

Muro’s book will be available on Amazon.com, Borders, Barnes & Noble and other national retailers. The book examines the true meaning of love as examined by God, containing biblical references correlating with Muro’s personal reflections.

“Every thought that I put in my book, I was able to find a scripture to go with it,” she said. “It was really amazing how I came across every single scripture.”

The Muros agree that compromise is a huge secret to marital bliss, as well as accepting the fact that there is no perfect marriage. The key is knowing that God is the answer, Muro said, and couples don’t have to go it alone.

“There are a lot of marriages that are failing,” she said. “But we need to learn to open our hearts and take what God has created for us."

The Muros live in Fresno, and Raymond’s three siblings still live in Reedley.
