The word honeymoon actually means first moon or first month. It is usually thought that the beginning period of a new relationship is the best. However this is not God's view for your marriage.
Your relationship should actually get better as time goes on. Scripture tells us that, "Our latter years should be greater than our former years."
The key is putting your partner first. Just as when your first met. Your desire was to please your partner by submitting to each other, giving to each other, and considering each others desires above your own.
You didn't realize it at the time, but you were actually employing the biblical principal of mutual submission. But as time went on, you gradually started to take each other for granted and focus on your own desires rather than your partner's.
If you both rediscover the principal of of mutual submission, your honeymoon will never end!
