Happy Marriage

What god hath joined together, let no man put asunder.” A husband and wife should each be married to God and all things good. A husband and wife should never let the sun go down on their wrath. Never carry over from one day to another accumulated irritations arising from little disagreements. Be sure to forgive each other for any sharpness before you retire at night.

The answer to a happy marriage is for each one to see the Christ in the other; begin now to see the Presence of the Living God in each other. Say to yourself now, “I salute the Divinity in my husband or in my wife,” as the case may be. Say to your wife or husband, “I appreciate all you are doing, and I radiate love and goodwill to you all day long.” Do not take your marriage partner for granted; show your appreciation and your love.

Think appreciation and goodwill, rather than condemnation, criticism, and nagging. Remember the injunction of the Bible, “Except the Lord build the house, they labor in vain that build it.” The way to build a peaceful home and a happy marriage is upon the basis of love, beauty, harmony, mutual respect, faith in God, and in all things good.

Say from your heart, “My marriage is consecrated in prayer and love.” A husband and wife should always pray together at least once a day, preferably at night before retiring; this will restore peace in the home and in the heart; for God is peace.

Three Steps to a Happy Marriage

The first step : In the beginning God. The moment you awaken in the morning, claim God is guiding you in all ways. Send out loving thoughts of peace, harmony, and love to your marriage partner, to all members of the family, and to the whole world.

The second step : Say grace at breakfast. Give thanks for the wonderful food, for your abundance, and for all of your blessings. Make sure that no problem, worries, or arguments shall enter into the table conversation; the same applies at dinner time.

The third step : Husband and wife should alternate in praying each night. Keep the Bible close at hand. Read the 23rd, 91st, 27th Psalms, the 11th Chapter, Hebrews, the 13th Chapter, 1 Corinthians, and other great texts of the New Testament before going to sleep. Say quietly, “Thank you, Father, for all the blessings of the day. God giveth his beloved sleep.”
