Your Marriage is a Gift from GOD


Marriage is such a huge thing for me because I lived and still living in LOVE.

My parents have gone through a lot especially my mom. One of the things I admire about my parents is that they never left us just to earn money in another country. GOD has been ouhttp://www.blogger.com/img/blank.gifr provider. Also, they never considered divorce. Divorce is not legal here, anyway, but there's annulment.

It was difficult for me as the eldest. So many expectations. I was the one who have experienced a lot with men. To summarize it all, it was not easy.

I have a burden for those who desire divorce and my heart goes to them. I have seen my mom suffer but then my love for my dad never changed. Why? Because I know that our FATHER is gracious. I know HIS Perfect Will but I just need to wait for the Perfect Timing.

When the fullness of time is right for you, He’ll show up—and you’ll be amazed by His brilliant timing! — Joe Stowell (from Our Daily Bread)

Mostly because the LOVE I feel deep inside is indescribable that it becomes unexplainable. It is overwhelmingly beautiful. IT IS ALL GOD!

There is a beautiful illustration shared to me by my mom while me and my sisters were all sitting in the living room with her. My dad wasn't home at that time. We were talking about him. My mom said, "Every dad is the head of the family. Every mom is the neck of the family. If the mom gives up, everything falls apart. The family falls apart. The neck is always the support of the head."

As you know, no one is perfect. The head (decision-maker) of the family is also subjected to make mistakes but the neck supports the head no matter what. The head will stop working once the neck has been cut off. A simple example is whenever my neck hurts or gets a stiffed neck, I always lie down and sleep. I can never make my mind work anymore.

I've read a beautiful prayer this morning from my friend Chris in his blog with his post entitled "Marriage"

Your marriage is a gift. Marriage can be summed up in two words - LOVE and COMMITMENT.

They say you need to experience it to know the situation every person is in. But you know what? I've experienced GOD. That alone is my reason for living every moment of my life. GOD IS MY SECRET WEAPON. GOD IS MY SOLUTION TO EVERY PROBLEM.

And I know that with GOD, I can do all things. HE IS MY ETERNAL GRACE, JOY, PEACE, STRENGTH, LIFE AND LOVE.....MY LOVING FATHER.

ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE WITH GOD!!!

ALL THE GLORY BELONGS TO GOD ALONE!!! P.U.S.H.

GOD BLESS YOUR MARRIAGE ABUNDANTLY! GOD IS ALWAYS WITH YOU - NO MATTER WHAT!

Make an impact. Make a difference. Make a ripple. Tip the scale. Be a blessing. Be different.

When you feel GOD's love, OVERFLOW!
