If you feel that your marriage won’t last, you need to read this!

Being married is at the top of the list of lifetime achievements, especially if you’re in a happy marriage. However, more often than not, that doesn’t happen.

More often than not, you fall in love with someone very hard, you spend years together, you go through stuff together, and for some reason or another, things don’t work out.

Many relationship experts would say that marriage requires hard work, commitment, and active involvement, and they’re not wrong. That is, indeed, the ideal solution to such a difficult situation.

    There are times when human beings just don’t get along with each other and that goes along with every marriage. Those who divorce over compatibility have not being true to their vows for better or worst and not allowing that love they felt for each other initially to come back through for them.
    My wife and I have been married for 53 years and even yet we have times where we disagree and don’t get along with each other. Let it ride!! Don’t allow your ego and pride to get in the way of your relationship with each other.
    Infidelity is another issue. Divorce in this instance is for the hardness of your heart. Only you can decide whether to forgive or not.

    Yes to deciding to forgive.
    A hard heart is a tough road
    going no where good.
    God forgives us especially and only when we forgive others.
