At the outset, i would
thank my dearest sister, Cynthia LeGrone (B.S graduate in Marriage & Family
Life Studies) for sharing this wonderful message with me. I believe it inspired
many and i'm sure you will also reap the blessings as you read it through.
Not to knock the single
person none the least, because we all lived the single life, prior to our
marriages.
However: With marriage
being the institution of a procreative unit, I find that it carries a great
umbrella of responsibilities. Responsibilities that many times go un-rewarded
by the members of the unit within the cycle of our lives.
You may now be wondering
where it is that I'm headed. Well, let me say it like this:
When two people are
joined together as one, it can many times create a colossal of confusion in the
early stages of the relationship, especially if the marriage was un-evenly
yoked.
You see, rather than two
people coming together as the union they now are, we many times, un-knowinly
continue in our on ways, in our own private worlds, doing a lot of the things
we done as singles, and before we realize it, the "Marriage Is In Turmoil' and headed for
divorce.
This is troubling, but
not un-fixable! A Marriage mandates the works of two people, and under the
authority of the power of God that put the two together, "All Things Are Possible."
God's word clearly
states in the book of Proverbs 18:22, Whoso findeth a wife findeth a good
thing, and obtaineth favour of the Lord. In seeking God's directions all things
are made 'new again'.
The responsibilities
within the marriage also include our willingness to forgive one another and
admit our wrong. The old saying,
"when you tell one lie, you will have to tell another to cover up the
other, is so very true."
We have a multitude of
weight on our shoulder as men and women of our households, as we carry out the
responsibility of providing for our families, loving one another, and raising
our children to the very best of our abilities. The struggle can sometimes
become over-bearing, but when that happens, this is the time to cling to one
another, and to God for the strength that which He had promised to brings us
through.
Yes, (The Institution of
Marriage) has and will forever trickle down through to the very core of who and
what we have become.
May we each as
par-takers within our unions be very proud and mindful that we are not in this
alone and that our partners are only one step away. Therefore, the pat on the
back that we seldom receive is so deserving.
Better Still, "God
is always with us", never leaving us nor forsaking us.
May God's Blessings Be
upon You and Yours Forever, with The Re-Kindling Fire and Powers He has Vested
within The Two As 'One.'
