HARDCORE TRUTH ABOUT MARRIAGE & RELATIONSHIPS!!!

For the couples,  those in relationships and even singles out there

1. There is nothing that threatens the security
of a wife than the thought of another woman
competing for the attention and affection of
her husband. Nothing is more painful. Nothing
is more disrespecting. Nothing is more
insulting. Nothing is more belittling and
degrading.

2. Marriage flourishes when the
couple works together as a team; when both
husband and wife decide that winning
together is more important than keeping
score. Good marriages don't just happen. They
are a product of hard work.

3. Your children
are watching you and forming lasting opinions
on love, commitment, and marriage based on
what they see in you. Give them hope. Make
them look forward to marriage.

4. Husbands:
The reason why other women look attractive is
because someone is taking good care of them.
Grass is always green where it is watered.
Instead of drooling over the green grass on
the other side of the fence, work on yours and
water it regularly. Any man can admire a
beautiful woman, but it takes a true
gentleman to make a woman admirable and
beautiful.

5. When a husband puts his wife
first above everyone and everything except
God, it gives his wife the sense of security and
honor that every wife hungers for.
6. Asuccessful marriage doesn't require a big
house, a prefect spouse, a million dollars or
an expensive car. You can have all the above
and still have a miserable marriage. A
successful marriage requires honesty, undying
commitment and selfless love and Jesus at
the center of it all.

7. Pray for your spouse
every day; in the morning, in the afternoon
and at evening. Don't wait until there is a
problem. Don't wait until there is an affair.
Don't wait until something bad happens. Don't
wait until your spouse is tempted. Shield your
spouse with prayer and cover your marriage
with the fence of prayer.

8. The people you
surround yourself with have a lot of influence
on your marriage. Friends can build or break
your marriage; choose them wisely.

9. One spouse cannot build a marriage alone when
the other spouse is committed to destroying it.
Marriage works when both husband and wife
work together as a team to build their
marriage.

10. Don't take your spouse for
granted. Don't take advantage of your
spouse's meekness and goodness. Don't
mistake your spouse's loyalty for desperation.
Don't misuse or abuse yours spouse's trust.
You may end up regretting after losing
someone that meant so much to you.

11.Beware of marital advice from single people.
Regardless of how sincere their advice may be,
most of it is theoretical and not derived from
real life experiences. If you really need Godly
advice, seek it from God-fearing, impartial and
prayerful mature couples whose resolve has
been tested by time and shaped by trials.

12.Dear wife, Don't underestimate the power of
the tongue on your marriage. The tongue has
the power to crush your marriage or build it
up. Don't let the Devil use your tongue to kill
your spouse's image, self-confidence and
aspirations. Let God use your tongue to build
up your marriage and bless and praise your
spouse.
