Saying “I do” is a monumental step in a life. Amidst the feeling of
romance are some hard issues that need to be addressed before tying the
marital knot. Issues like finances, sexual responsibility, church
participation, work schedules, are a few. A well known preacher said
recently that he knew when he took his wife as his bride that she had some
baggage. What he didn’t know was that she also brought with her her mother’s
baggage, her mother’s mother’s baggage, her friend’s baggage, and her
friend’s friend’s baggage. He didn’t mention his own baggage. It was a funny
statement but it is not so funny.
Our world has become a complicated place and everyone is willing to share
their opinion based on their own experiences. Some of those experiences are
good and some not so good. A young woman told us how happy she was to
announce her engagement to her coworkers. Instead of the congratulations she
expected to get, she got frowns and words like “What do you want to ruin a
good thing for?” Disheartened, she wondered if she was doing t
he
right thing. Another young woman told us how after a minor disagreement with
her husband was advised by her friend to get rid of him. “Misery loves
company” is an old saying. marriagePlus believes that marriage is a good
thing. Marriage is a God thing. God instituted marriage as the foundation on
which our society was built. It gives us structure for the raising of our
children. It gives us a life partner to share our experiences with. A real
live person who we can count on as we traverse this great adventure we know
as life.
