No, the marriages that thrive are the ones between people who appreciate grace. Such grace appears in those moments when you suddenly see the person you’ve always known just as you’ve always known them but also as someone surprising, someone brand-new.
Marriage is one of the most humbling, sanctifying journeys you will ever be a part of. It forces us to wrestle with our selfishness and pride. But it also gives us a platform to display love and commitment.
Marriage sets up the conditions in which we can take valuable decisions about what to do with our lives that would be too risky outside of its guarantees.
Marry someone you don’t want to change, who doesn’t want to change you.
Someone that doesn’t punish you for mistakes.
Someone who sees you as your highest potential.
Commit completely.
Falling in love is easy.
Staying in love is harder.
Enthusiasm is common.
Endurance is rare.
Marriage is for getting through the times when you’re not in love.
Expect things
Fart around. Frolic.
