OUR MARRIAGE IS YOUNG BUT STRONG!
by SIXTUS ONYEANUSI Written on: Date: 4th August, 2015 Time: In the Morning Day: Tuesday Place: At Home ******************************** We wed everyday! We create enough time to play We pray like men and play like kids A Christ-like heart is the key It never gets boring Grace from Heaven keeps outpouring! This isn't a fairy movie It's real, it's how we're living Today, we're just four months old But we've learned lessons untold Truth is, no marriage would work Except both couple walk the talk The first love must be guarded and nurtured Because without taking care of it, it would be punctured No marriage is without a challenge But the trials are intended to bring positive attitudinal change One surest way to make your marriage work Is to deliberately pay heed to the Word It may sound mean or foolish But failure to humbly obey could cause the relationship to perish! We can't do without the Holy Ghost and His word! Obeying the word creates enough room for the Lord He fills our hearts with grace and love towards our spouse And makes the aroma of His joy be perceived in our house! Marriages go sour and homes scatter Because their daily conducts are not in keeping with Jesus', even the Father! We made up our minds to make our marriage work And the enemy is raging against it in fiery wars We are not ignorant of his devices God is helping us to be sober and vigilant by His mercies When one is offended, (a times over something insignificant. Lol) we go inside and sincerely discuss it We make sure that in our hearts are found no bitterness or impurity For such negativity hinders us from God's Presence and home-made blessings We constantly in all things cleave to each other By consciously and unconsciously doing things together Without struggles, we are daily becoming one in actuality Both in views, desires and personality Transparency is part of our core secrets Our hearts are unveiled in all sincerity We seek each other's good And in love we speak the truth I am there for her, to protect her To defend and cherish her with my whole heart It is my noble duty And with joy I'm doing it! Firmly united, we guard against outside distractions that might arise And on God's amazing plans we set our eyes With care and God's fear we handle finances and in-laws Friends, neighbours and even the task of house chores We wisely make sure nothing comes between us She's not my slave She's my bone, my flesh, my self She needs my support spiritually, and physically The words of my mouth and my attitudes toward her should be that of love and acceptance emotionally This is how a couple can live happily ever after in reality It's a labour; a rewarding responsibility! This is not a fairy tale If we're to marry again We would still stick to God's will To have His original pattern of marriage in us fulfilled! Happy 4th Month Anniversary, My Love!
