The Happenings of Marriage

[llewksgood]

When we begin our marriage, one thing is certain, stuff will happen, and some of it can be amusing and very frustrating. Through some of it you're going to have to make decisions that will affect your entire future, and you, alone, will have to sift through the possibilities.

Some of the frustrating things you get over are like the fact that my wife started menstruating on the day of our wedding. Because of what we believe this meant no sex on the wedding night. It was quite a difficult night for me, I can tell you.

One of the more difficult decisions would be like the time, less than a year into our marriage, she came home and told me she had an afair and wanted a divorce. We're still married, so that tells you what my decision was, but it was a painful period of time till I confronted it.

Over the years of your marriage some decisions will change, individual attitudes will bring out things you thought you'd got over, and, if you stick at it, you'll change too.

I absolutely love my wife, and constantly affirm her, but I had to decide to love her even if it appeared she didn't love me, and that required dying to self in many areas.

I suppose these are the happenings of marriage, and we all have different ones, but they make us stronger if we learn to act as God would have us through them.

I've had a whole heap of happy years [29 this April], because the tuff times always go away if you don't hold on to them.

I have determined, that this is the one thing I know... the true measure of my husband's love, does in deed compare with the love of Jesus in our marriage. For they both Love me, when I am unlovable. 

God Bless.
