WHAT TO KNOW ABOUT LUST AND LOVE IN THE CONCEPT OF MARRIAGE. PT 2.
Continuation…
Marriage is more than making babes, sleeping together, walking together and spending together. Every good and godly marriages are based on Love and Endurance not lust and enjoyment as many thinks. Lust can’t keep a home and Endurance comes before Enjoyment in marriage. What do I mean by Endurance? You agreed to live with someone you have little idea of, so, you have to start understanding one another for some years, start correcting some fault in love, and teaching one another some principles of life and marriage. So if you lack endurance, you can’t go through this process. During those period, Lust can’t sustain you, because lust only came for what to get not what to contribute, when this is not achieved, lust leads you out of the marriage. So love is what sustains you to endure the trying time before the enjoyment.
Marriages built on lust are filled with lies, pretence, domestic violence, lack of unity, insubordination and bitterness. While Marriages built on Love are full of truth from onset, No violence, united, openness, submissiveness (from both sides), understanding and happiness. Get this, no marriages is without ups and downs but love keeps the marriage during these period.
KEYS TO SUCCESSFUL MARRIAGE.
1. Face Yourself
Face Your Marriage.
Marriage is between two persons, without any interference from other parties, either from the two in-laws or friends. It’s between you two that has become one, you don’t need to compare your home with others. Build your home. If other marriages fail will yours fail too? So face your selves in your marriage.
2. Ingredients Of Marriage.
Marriages is not built on Love alone but many other ingredients such as Commitment, Forgiveness, Endurance, Sacrifice, Submissiveness (from both side), and Acceptability.
WHY PEOPLE QUIT IN MARRIAGES
1. Lust Base and not Love Base.
They didn’t know the difference between Lust and Love before going into marriage and they have no deep meaning of what marriage entails.
2. Lack of Unity In Marriage.
Marriage is not a ring where you FIGHT to win, No, it’s a field where you PLAY to win together, cover one another lapses, blame games is not allowed, so, it’s a team game, Amos 3:3. It’s a field where you play as a team not as an individual.
_Life Is A Ring Where You Fight To Win But Marriage Is A Field Where You Play To Win._
3. One Sided Support System.
You don’t marry because of what you’ll gain only, you marry to contribute and then gain from one another, that’s why it’s called, Give and Take. When you are not ready to Sacrifice, Forgive, Control and be Controlled, Supportive and Submissive, don’t think about marriage, because this is what marriage entails.
I don’t know what you are going through in Your marriage presently, but this i know, God can handle it all, just identify the source of your challenges first then, the solution will show up.
God Bless you.
