I’m not sure I can always tell love from passion. One father said of
his teenaged son, “I don’t know if he’s in love or in heat!” What

When it comes to firsts, Michelle Obama seems to break new ground every day. Of course, being the first black first lady is at the top of the heap. But she’s first in many other “first lady” categories, too.
As the media assesses her husband’s first 100 days in office tomorrow, we look at the mark she has made in her short time in the White House:

Making Marriage Work
…
Mary Southerland
…
I once read that all weddings are happy. It’s the living together afterwards that causes all the trouble. I often feel as if my marriage is this tiny out post sitting in the middle of enemy territory being attacked from all sides. Other times it seems as if I am married to the enemy! Sometimes I am the enemy!
…
This world is not the friend of marriage but God is! In fact, marriage was His idea! I know that you want a great marriage but may feel as if your relationship has endured too much pain, that there is no hope. No matter where you are or where you have been in your marriage, the rest of your marriage can be the best part of your marriage.
