“A successful marriage requires falling in love many times, always with the same person”

~ Mignon McLaughlin

[11.21.10]

I agree with this quote, I don’t know what feels like to be married but I know that being married requires COMMITMENT. Like any other love relationship there’s always a test that couples are going experience. At one point it is all puppy love and lovely-dovey but there will be a time when the relationship becomes dry. So what do you do? Do you simply just end the relationship because the sparks are all gone or do you still continue? I think that’s why relationship ends so quickly and the divorces rate is slowly growing because people forget the true meaning of marriage.

I learned from my relationship with God and couples from my church that marriage is all about COMMITMENT, no what your experiencing in your love life you have to keep fighting to save your marriage. There will be a season of challenges where relationship will be tested. Do you still love the person when all the sparks are gone? My thoughts, of course, if God loves us no matter what then we have to keep on loving God no matter what. Which means, if you truly want to have a long lasting relationship, you have to keep loving the person through every single challenges that you face in a relationship. Don’t just simply quite because the fire is gone. It’s going to happen eventually to every relationship that your going to be with so why quit. Just deal with it.  

Throughout my Christian journey, I learned that God’s love is always new every single day. Which means there’s more to love about God everyday single day and for the rest of our lives that’s pretty interesting huh? So how this apply to relationship, if you plan to love someday or marry the person whom you will be spending for the rest of your life. Remember that love is new every single that is waiting to be explored. Love requires us to step out of our comfort zone in act of growth and maturity. We still have a lot to learn about love and trust me we will never know the depth of love even though we found somebody that completes us. Love can never be measured and I think that is the beauty of it because we’re not going to last forever. God doesn’t want us to spend our lives to define love. He already made it clear for us to love others and Him alone. Isn’t God awesome?

To the point: So men, keep romanticizing the woman that you love and don’t feel tired her because she could be your soul mate. Most importantly LISTEN to her because COMMUNICATION is very important. It will SAVE your love life. Trust me, when I say this because COMMUNICATION is the key to successful relationship. Communication is not a one way conversation, it is a two conversation. After all, isn’t our relationship with God a two way communication? When you speak do you also listen to him”?

Ladies, give your man a BREAK and help us try to UNDERSTAND when we feel like we don’t get it. We man can’t read your minds because as men we go with the flow knowing that your against the flow. Please be patient with us and pray for us because we cannot function on our own. We need you more than anything but we are just afraid to say it.

NEVER STOP LOVING BECAUSE IT’S WORTH IT
