Marriage Changes Everything

Hello everyone, welcome to my blog.
Share your marital stories. The Joy, How we handle issues, Prayer points, Older couples marriage success stories, parenting kitchen,everything. This is my first post and i hope you tag along all through.
Been single is completely different from been married. Marriage is sweet, it brings more maturity in one and you need God in all you do. It gives you a strong charisma.
You may have been friendly, playful, easy going to everyone, calm, ambitious, have an aura to be easily liked, quiet, an aura of bringing good things to people you are friends with. well all that has got to change, family comes first.
I guess before you got married you were in your own world doing things your way.
Now you should drop a lot as you are married. You can still do things your way but your spouse needs to involved and have a positive consent to it.

If you were timid before, now you have to be Bold and confident, soon you will be supporting your husband in decision making and grooming your kids.

If you were Mr. or miss popular before, you need to limit your friendliness from others to your spouse, your children, extended Family(mother, father, mother in-law/father-in-laws, brothers, sisters, bro-in-law/sister in-law,  then close relatives…), except your job requires you to for example a news caster and even at that your relationship with others especially the opposite sex should be guided in other not to send wrong signals

Be open to your spouse, be as transparent and straight as you can because secrets never hide.
Be very open to communication because this is key in your marriage and talk when you are burdened it gives your spouse the heads up to helping you and it gives you instant relief.
Respect your husbands, They are the head of the family just as Christ is the head of the Church. You should be humble, gives your husband all your respect , then watch the outcome. A old couple  once told me respect, patience are key in marriage and mostly needed for a woman to relate peacefully with her husband and when you have these, people will see your home and wonder what magic it is you are using because there will definitely be peace and joy

Remember: Don’t compare your marriage to others.

There may be challenges but rather than feel sad and miserable, stay strong, let love lead the way, same love that made you marry your spouse, bring the sweet memories back....pray, stick together. Because there's nothing out there that can give you peace and nothing is new, life is in circles, just as the earth is oval and old styles(clothing designs) come back from the time of old so also is that situation of yours, it has happened before and so it should not cause you to make wrong decisions, be guided!

“Give up things of yourself when it means happiness for your spouse, which ultimately leads to your own happiness.”
