A view on Marriage

 


I am not married yet but with the things I have been told by married people, from television, radio and the internet I know I can give my opinion about it.

Marriage is a union between two people. It is a divine institution created by God. "A man shall leave his mother and father and cling to his wife and they shall become one flesh".

Many times when two people meet they don't take their time to know themselves well for eg; background, business, take on finances and children, responsibilities etc. Some of this things are very vital and you should know. If they rush through it without the necessary information they sometimes end up quitting  the marriage.

When two lovely couples stand in front of the alter to say their 'I dos' what they sometimes mean is 'I'll try' but they forget that this is not an exam you are trying your hands on rather it is a long term commitment you are making to your significant other, someone you love. Mean the words you say because it is 'till death do you part'. If you are not ready please do not embark on this journey.

Other times people are too desperate to settle down because their biological clock is ticking or pressure from family and friends which most times end up tragically.

Marriage is a beautiful thing God created because His word said "He who finds a wife finds a good thing and obtains favour from God". Anyone who gets married must be happy.

Marriage is about compromising, honesty and trust. You should learn to do these things effortlessly.

Some people also find it difficult to adapt in their new environment but they should learn to adapt because now you are one and there should be no privacy between you. Keep no secrets from each other. Secrets ruin marriage so be truthful at all times.

Treat your wife as a queen and your husband as a king. Let him feel like he is the boss. Be submissive to him. Submission does not make you weak but rather strong. It means you consider him the 'head of the home'. 

Husbands respect your wives, that doesn't make you weak either but rather it shows how much you love your wife like 'Christ loved the church'.

Do not allow a third party into your marital problems. It ruins everything rather discuss it together and offer solutions to it. If it becomes too difficult to solve the issue take it to God in prayer and he will give you wisdom, knowledge and understanding to deal with it.

Do not entertain family members/friends for too long in your home. It does not help. You are married and you need your privacy.

Making time for each other is a top priority. Time, attention and affection matter alot in marriage. It creates a bond between you two;  hence do not bring extra work home. Home is for the family, leave that in the office.

Always remember " Happy Wife, Happy Life"

RELATIONSHIPS (FUD 4 THOUGHT)

Everyone wants a fairy tale relationship  Where the story line goes like this On one bright Saturday afternoon at the mall I was just checking out some dresses when suddenly my purse fell I reached to pick it when he decided to do that for me I looked at him and it was love at first sight We started talking and it felt like we had known each other forever Shortly after we started dating This guy was just amazing He understood me and accepted my flaws  He was just my kind of man The love was deep and I loved every inch of it Years after, he popped the question   And I gladly accepted And we've lived happily ever after till now These kind of stories doesn't exist in reality Trust me....they don't In the beginning of every relationship is very lovely and sweet but getting to the middle of it, things become very sour And that is where questions start popping up in our  minds "Why is he/she doing this to me?, does he/she...

UPLIFTMENT 2

People always complain that their work is not going well People always attribute their faults to something People always think they have the most problems People always compare themselves to others People always envy others just because of what they have be it money,fame, beauty etc. But you forget that God is the maker and provider of everything He alone can make you successful Many at times we forget to just say thank you to Him. The fact that we are still alive and counted among the living, the only thing He needs from you is your praises The fact that we are not dead, we can still do more and achieve everything if only we call on to Him And make Him the ruler of our lives Just do what you have to do and leave the rest to God Almighty And He will surely deliver if only you believe in him and trust him Don't compare yourself to other people I know sometimes it is frustration but... Do you even know what they go through everyday? They may even want what you have ...

FUD FOR THOUGHT 2

True words were never spoken unless you associate your life with some people your life will improve. Anytime you tolerate mediocrity and others it increases your mediocrity. An important attribute in successful people is their impatience with negative thinking and negative acting people. As you grow your associates will change. Your friends will not want you to go on, they would want you to stay where they are. Friends that don't help you climb will want you to crawl. Your friends will stretch your vision or choke your dreams. Those that don't increase you will eventually decrease you. Consider this never receive counsel from unproductive people. Never discuss your problems with somebody who is incapable of contributing to the solution because those who never succeed themselves are always first to tell you how. Not everyone has the right to speak into your life. You will certainly get the worse of the bargain when you exchange your ideas with the wrong person. Don't foll...
