Marriage is a Blessing
Posted on: October 20, 2014
Marriage is finding that one special person, your soul mate
To spend the rest of your life with
And when you find that individual it sometimes feels like fate.
You now have a partner to share your hopes
And dreams here on through;
You have made a commitment in front of GOD and to each other too.
You made that promise through your vows to your loved one
On your wedding day to be there for one another.
There are some days though that appear
To be much duller than brighter,
But you need to remember you made that promise
“For better or for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness
and in health, to love and to cherish;
From this day forward until death do you part.”
No one ever said that marriage was going to be easy,
In fact there are going to be many tough moments,
That your spouse may make you very angry;
These are the times you want to give up on that relationship
Because it appears to be the easy way out
But sometimes that happiness you have now felt
May be short-lived bringing you later some doubt.
It was because at the time you didn’t want to be bothered wasting
Any more of your time or energy
And for a brief period of time it felt so great to finally be free.
The thing you will finally come to realize is that
Not one relationship will ever be perfect in anyway.
In fact the new person you meet
May be even more irritating to you in some ways
But because it was a new relationship you seem
To overlook these annoyances at first,
That is until a period of time passes and your happiness becomes reversed,
As you soon start to get bothered by their many quirks
Because their faults will later appear more visible and no longer absent
Making this new relationship lose any of its perks;
This now makes you wish you never gave up on your marriage
But rather stayed and made it work.
Marriage is a gift from GOD and a true blessing
But it often does take a lot of effort and work.
Sometimes it is GOD that may be missing in your relationship
And prayer may be the key to this vital piece of groundwork.
This may be one of the most important factors
Or details to keeping this connection strong
And with it you will realize this is where your relationship
May have gone wrong.
If you take the time to pray with one another,
You are more likely to stay together,
Helping the two of you get your relationship off the ground.
Making you appreciate that marriage of yours
As a special blessing or gift in life to be found.
