Marital Statement "For Better or For Worse." by @patience90

Introduction

Marriage is a beautiful thing especially if you marry right. Though there are challenges as two journey together but those who understand each other will strive hard to stay together and conquer.

What do you understand by this statement, "for better for worse," in the marriage institution?

Well, I understand that in marriages, there will be better and worse days and as couple, you are advice to stick together in both days and accept each other and work everything out even if you are in your better or worse days.
That's what I understand by the statement.

Do you support this moral statement "for better for worse" in the marriage institution during wedding ceremonies? If yes! Or no! Please kindly give reasons for your answers because you might be a helper and problem solver.

Sincerely speaking, I don't support that moral saying.
Not that worse days won't come but I think speaking positively into the marriage will be better. I'm sure the couple must have underwent counselling and were told that so I see no need saying it over again.

Do you have personal experience suffering from a situation of this kind, or have you heard of it from others?

I don't have any personal experience but I've witnessed and heard countless couples who have the experiences.
It's not easy on them and 98% of them wished they never married in the first place.
I was with a friend last Friday and she was lamenting bitterly over her 10 years marriage and was threatening to go to court. I had to discourage her from going to court and then encourage her to look at the brighter side since physical abuse is not involved and trust God to heal her home as she complained that it's has been for better worse for worst since they got married.

If you were to change or encourage/refashion this statement "for better for worse," what would be your options that could reasonably solve the issue, aiming at having peaceful families in general?

First of all, I'll change that statement "for better for worse" to "for better for best".

Reason is that couple should start speaking positively into their marriages. Its an encouraging statement that will help them push through because better days are ahead.
As Christians, we should learn to depend on God and also speak positively into our lives.
Learn to focus on the promise land not to always look at the land of captivity because of the vegetables you left.

Conclusion

In conclusion, life is not a bed of roses but staying and speaking positively keeps us going without giving up.
Same should be applicable to marriages. No need of harboring the thought of any worse days coming but better and best days ahead.
