Marriage Again
"A wife of noble character who can find?
She is worth far more than rubies.
Her husband has full confidence in her
and lacks nothing of value."
(Proverbs 31:10, 11)
Many
times it has been stated that marriage is the world’s toughest job. Let me
quote from The Mystery of Marriage by Mike Mason.
“Marriage, even under the best
of circumstances, is a crises; one of the major crises
of
life. It is a dangerous thing not to be aware of this. Whether it turns out to
be a healthy,
challenging
and constructive crises or a disastrous nightmare depends largely upon how
willing
the
partners are to be changed, how malleable they are."
"Crises" seems a bit
extreme to me, but certainly marriage is a great opportunity for the
fulfillment
of life and it certainly is not without its "opportunities" for
either success or failure. A marriage blessed by God, one in which the partners
have allowed God's love to grow in their
relationship
is one of the world’s greatest experiences.
June
and I have been blessed.
Thought
for Today:
We are facing many distractions in our daily lives; work, busy
schedules,
terrorism, war, and financial issues are some. This week let us look at our
primary
relationships.
Let us focus introspectively, up close. Let us understand that when things are
fine
in
our relationships, the outside problems seem less intense. Basically, let's focus on our loves.
