50/50 & Marriage Don't Mix

Half Won't Do
Have you heard the saying, marriage is a 50/50 contract?  I've heard it many times and always questioned the idea of that.  I remember back in the day when my football coach would ask me to give my 100% on every play and I knew that meant to leave it all on the field.  He wanted me to give all I had and then some so our team had a better chance of winning.  And what if everyone on our team did the same!!  In all things we should give our best which means delivering a 100% effort so that we might succeed at whatever we do.

Marriage is a relationship that deserves our 100% effort.  When I'm performing a wedding I always share that each spouse is responsible for an all out, full scale, 100% effort at making their marriage work.  So 50/50 becomes a 200% effort between the two.  Have you ever been asked at work to give your full 50% effort or would you be happy with a Barista at Starbucks filling your cup of coffee half way?  How about a doctor administering partial treatment or a policeman offering 50% protection from an attacker?  50% is not the number you want to hear unless its the percentage off of an item your shopping for.  When it comes to your marriage half of your heart and a 50% effort will not suffice.  It's 100% from both of you starting now:)
