Positive Quote for the Week-Don’t Quit on your relationship

“Just because things get difficult doesn’t mean that you give up, get into your prayer closet and pray for your marriage!” Erica Willis

One of the things that people don’t mention to you before you get married is that it really is going to take hard work to make it successful. You are connecting with someone on a mental, physical, emotional, and spiritual level and if you are not prepared for that, it will become challenging. You are entering into a crash course on learning how to adapt to how someone else lives. I know one of the things that I struggled with the most was understanding that my husband was now the head of the household.

I was a single mother taking care of my house, bills, and everything in between and now here I was having to learn how to let go of the fact that I was no longer fully in charge. It took a little while to grasp that fact but the Lord helped me understand the importance of submitting to my husband. He designed the family structure that way, Ephesians 5:23.

One of the main reasons I feel like I was ready to compromise and adjust is because I came into the relationship whole. I had spent one on one time with the Lord Jesus Christ and He molded, shaped, and prepared me to be a wife. He taught me the level of maturity that it was going to take to be in a successful marriage.

The fact of the matter is that every relationship is going to go through ups and downs. When those situations occur, make it a point to seek the Lord for resolution. Don’t speak negativity over your spouse, words have power and you can speak blessings or curses. You have to make sure that you go into your prayer closet and cover your husband or wife in prayer.

Scriptures on Marriage:

Genesis 2:18 “And the Lord God said, “It is not good that man should be alone; I will make him a helper comparable to him.”

Ephesians 5:25 “Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ also loved the church and gave Himself for her.”

Proverbs 18:22 “He who finds a wife finds a good thing, and obtains favor from the Lord.”

Matthew 19:6 “So then, they are no longer two but one flesh. Therefore what God has joined together, let not man separate.”
