How to make my Marriage work

in #steemit7 years ago


Why do people fall in love? Why do people decide to get married? Well i think they do so because they are in search of life-long companionship, through which they can fill their life with love and happiness.

However, in order to live a happy married life, it is essential to accept your spouse the way they are. Everyone has different beliefs, thinking patterns, opinions, and viewpoints. So it is natural that no two people think alike. Hence, we can say that marriage is a merger of two separate sets of beliefs and mindsets. Due to these unlike mindsets, a couple tends to differ in terms of the way they deal with different matters in life. These differences create conflict in marriage, thus resulting in an unhappy marriage.! This are some of the tips for a better marriage

  1. Reserve time for one another at all costs.

  2. Spend only what you have — financial stress kills romance.

  3. Leave no room for selfishness — be relationship givers and not takers.

  4. Make sure the “leave and cleave” principle takes place (Genesis 2:24).

  5. Bring your expectations in line with reality — the perfect
    spouse does not exist.

  6. Trust one another and build reasonable boundaries —
    jealousy and trust rarely co-exist.

  7. Avoid alcohol or substance abuse, pornography, gambling and other potential
    addictions that will quickly kill your marriage and your life.

  8. Be content with having enough — “Give me neither poverty nor riches, but
    give me only my daily bread” (Proverbs 30:8).

  9. Think of your marriage as a marathon — you will need determination and
    faith to go the distance of a lifetime.

  10. Keep Christ at the center and remember His words, “In the world ye shall
    have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world”
    (John 16:33).
