Ten Things to Consider Before Marriage

  1. Marriage is a lifelong commitment.

    "So they are no longer two, but one. Therefore what God has jointed together, let man not separate." "Why then," they asked, "did Moses command that a man give his wife a certificate of divorce and send her away?" Jesus replied, "Moses permitted you to divorce your wives because your hearts were hard. But it was not this way from the beginning." - Matthew 19:6-8

  2. Your marriage will go through tough times, but remember it’s a lifelong commitment.

    "Consider it pure joy, my brothers, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith develops perseverance." - James 1:2

  3. Be a servant to your spouse, putting her needs before your own.

    "Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs." - 1 Corinthians 13: 4-5

  4. Learn to forgive…and forget.

    "For if you forgive men when they sin against you, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. But if you do not forgive men their sins, you Father will not forgive your sins." - Matthew 6:14-15

  5. Admit when you are wrong, and seek reconciliation with your spouse.

    "Therefore, if you are offering your gift at the altar and there remember that your brother has something against you, leave your gift there in front of the altar. First go and be reconciled to your brother; then come and offer your gift." - Matthew 5:23-24

  6. Make plans together, but don’t be surprised when things do not turn out the way you planned.

    "Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will." - Romans 12:2

  7. Communicate often, but don’t try to change your spouse. Instead, try to encourage and strengthen each other. You cannot change your spouse, but you can change yourself.

    "Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother’s eye and pay no attention to the plank in your own eye? How can you say to your brother, `Brother, let me take the speck out of your eye,’ when you yourself fail to see the plank in your own eye? You hypocrite, first take the plank out of your eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother’s eye. - Luke 6:41-42

  8. Don’t depend on your spouse to fill all your needs. Only God can do that.

    "Cursed is the one who trusts in man, depends on flesh for his strength whose heart turns away from the LORD." - Jeremiah 17:5

  9. A husband must be willing to fill his God-given role.

    "Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her to make her holy, cleansing her by the washing with water through the word, and to present her to himself as a radiant church, without stain or wrinkle or any other blemish, but holy and blameless. In this same way, husbands ought to love their wives as their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself." - Ephesians 5:25-28

  10. A wife must be willing to fill her God-given role.

    "Wives, submit to your husbands as to the Lord. 23 For the husband is the head of the wife as Christ is the head of the church, his body, of which he is the Savior. 24 Now as the church submits to Christ, so also wives should submit to their husbands in everything." - Ephesians 5:22-24

Tim is in Jeram Besu right now..he left this morning.. we were talking on the phone…as far as i’m concern,he said that he WILL misscall me as a sign to indicate that he had arrived safely. That was my only reassurance that he did.SAdly, for whatever reason that might be, he did not. I was all stressed out and pressured in making a decision on whether or not to hand in my EST SPM paper for a remark.. n here he was, being as irresponsible as ever not bothering to call or even msg me!! o btw, i did send it all the way to Putrajaya..now, im kinda regretting it..feeling really down and hurt..but at the same time, trusting in God and recalling his Grace to me helps alot! Amen. Anyway back to tim…so i msged him..did he reply? nooo..i do remember he said he made sure he topped up before leaving..n for what may i ask? u mite as well just dont bring ur fon instead! so me, as usual..being compromisasive.. waited till evening..n i decided to call him..had a bad feeling already..twice his phone rang and he did not pick up..perhaps hes eating,perhaps hes bathing..perhaps he did not hear..i had to call his ex-gf..yup, just imagine!! n she said "yea…tim’s here already"..relieved as i was ..at the same time really mad at that guy! errghh..commitment n understanding as if ! =@ not going to let that CONTINUE to ruin my day, rushing through assignments..havnt got a chance to study yet.. stressed out..lonely..n finally wondering whether i should miss him or not.. *frown*
