THE PROCESS OF BECOMING ONE'
Marriage is very challenging because you have two people from different backgrounds who think and act in different ways. The process of becoming one means renouncing all ways which are not in line with God's Word and the vision that He gave to the head of the family being the husband.
It is not easy challenging old and unfitting patterns and attitudes, whenever change is demanded resistance rises. Change becomes impossible when spouses are adamant, rigid and stubborn in their old ways.
Marriage is an institution that demands constant learning, changing and adapting. Failure to accept change will result in misunderstandings, fights and bitterness. Marriage needs alot of working on, diligence, consistency fully trusting in the grace of our Lord Jesus.
When two study God's Word together, pray together and do things together constantly, the two will find the becoming one process much more smoother than anticipated. Two cannot walk together unless they agree, agreement is the beginning of a successful union.
"And the LORD said, Behold, the people are one, and they have all one language; and this they begin to do: and now nothing will be restrained from them, which they have imagined to do"_Genesis 11:6
The s*x can be good, the money may be coming in but failure to effectively communicate, agree and allow change will be catastrophic. Do nothing without agreeing with your spouse (unless it's the will of God), two people in agreement can turn the world upside down.
Becoming one means agreement or you will be pulling is different directions and marrying outside your faith is pulling towards that direction.
May Christ be formed in your union, may He perfect all that concerns you in Jesus name, amen.
