Every once in awhile I like to read my horoscope.

It’s never been wrong.

“Your family members have suddenly decided to promote you to chief cook and bottle washer. While there are additional responsibilities to taking on the new leadership role, it can pay off in both financial and emotional rewards. You’ll get the help you need. “

My Horoscope for Today

I wasn’t sure what this meant so I started to panic.

Fortunately, I found another horoscope that said this:

“Whatever you do today—whether it’s running errands, studying for a big test, or just working out—try to insert some romance into it.”

Also My Horoscope for Today

This made me feel much better.

It lines up perfectly with something I read in a book that is teaching me how to have an awesome, Christ-centered marriage.

“List three areas of your life that have caused a loss of romance in your marriage. Work on the most important area to keep from drifting further apart. Pray for God’s help.”

I think I can slash your self-help book budget to zero.

“Keep trying to improve.”

You’ll have to figure out what qualifies as “improvement”.

Horoscopes are pretty sketchy about specifics.

“Be on the lookout for improvement in an important area of life today. Things will get better starting now!”

Or…if you prefer…

“God is wanting the best for your marriage. Even if things are great, have faith that it can be better!”

Things will be better.

Whatever that means!
