Anger is the root of destruction. It has destroyed marriages and hardened hearts. Pride in relationships can tear apart and blind a couple from the good they bring one another. Pride can be a wedge that begins and lays the way for the breakdown of a marriage.
This afternoon I had a conversation with a dear sister in Christ. She had reached out and shared that her parents were going through a divorce. It had made her heart very heavy with despair. She shared how it makes her lose hope in Love, in the fight for it. After all, True Virtuous Love as I have mentioned before doesn’t come easy, it requires sacrifice.
She even asked, “what is Love?” “What makes that person so special?” She has often referred to her husband as her, “other half.” She is amazed at how God has provided an other half, for so many in this world.
Her repeated question intrigued me…. “What makes that other person so special among all the rest?” She ponders, out of all the people that are out there, why does THAT ONE Person become the One? I told her I believed it was timing. If you have the compatibility and chemistry that is one thing but another factor many don’t consider is, timing.
I believe in God’s time, if it is his will, God will bless and provide a true love to those patiently waiting on him. To those seeking his guidance in their longing for that other half that so many are blessed with.
Only if those that have found that person already, could cherish their other half, a little more each day and never stop showing the effort they did at the beginning of their relationship then maybe marriages wouldn’t be falling apart every day.
