In those days, our parents usually come together,
they barely knew each other and they grew in love
as a couple and in most cases, grew old together
because they chose to love who they married.
They lay little emphasis on feelings, chemistry or
even dating/courtship yet had a wonderful long
lasting union but today, we want to be sure the
feeling is real, we want to fall in love first, we
want to be sure we are compatible and we
meticulously pay attention to inconsequential
matters and looking for faults and even many
who tend to believe they got it right still end up
breaking up after they eventually get married and
i keep wandering what exactly are we getting
wrong.
After a thorough research from GOD’s words i
found out that the ideal mode of marriage laid
down by GOD have been abandoned and we have
now come up with our own pattern…
Until we go back to the plan of GOD regarding
marriage and understand that staying married is
not about feelings or compatibility, neither is it
about body chemistry or how romantic he or she
is because all these aforementioned can never
sustain a marriage but it is about growing in love
and having a meticulous determination to love
who you marry and stay married against all odds.
GOD’s plan for marriage is for two people to
come together and grow in love not for them to
first fall in love before coming together.Genesis
2:22-24
I hope this makes sense.
