But how hard it is to stay in till the end!  Everybody falls in love. Even a so-called 'fool' falls in love. There are good falls in love as well as bad falls. Lustful and ungodly ways, and all the other ways we have fabricated and labeled 'Love\" to satisfy our sinful fleshly desires and egos.  We call all these feelings \"Love\", but most of the times, we have no clue of what we are talking about. \u003cbr\u003eWe easily fall in love but staying in love and building a strong and healthy home together where God dwells and is honored is becoming more and more precarious these days. Why? Because we have entangled ourselves with tons of pre-meditative mindsets, ungodly issues and non-Biblical claims which are ruining marriages and breaking hearts. And the children of God are not exempt.\u003cbr\u003eAt the present, lots of marriages are struggling to survive; some have already fallen apart, and others are just hanging on just to save their faces.  Many issues are being swept under the rugs, issues such as infidelities, pornography, abuses of all forms, and all kinds of unhealthy behaviors.  Unfortunately, the home, which should be a haven for families are now become boxing showcasing arenas, registering untold cruelty, physical, verbal, and emotional abuses.  \u003cbr\u003eHaving been in the ministry for over 40years, I have participated in so many marriage ceremonies, be it traditional, religious, or just renewals.  I have had the privilege of counseling countless couples of all calibers as well.  In my own observations, I have come to realize that many fall in love, or enter marriage with lots of preconceived ideas, wrong mindsets, and cultural ideologies which are like brittle bricks. They start a relationship, speak the love language, walk the aisles, take their vows at a church or in a courtroom, and live together without any divine revelation and guidance concerning what marriage truly is in the eyes of the Creator, and the sacrifices involved. But when difficult challenges stick their heads out in their relationship, they chase each other around the house like Tom and Jerry (the cat and the mouse) until one gets hurt and leave, or both rip their once-promising love life apart, leaving lots of casualties behind.   \u003cbr\u003eNow, divorces are becoming more and more rampant. Families are being hurt and divided, and the children involved in these relationships are wounded and confused, making them more vulnerable to all the ills this generation is already dealing with. So, to begin with, it is very important for all of us to reflect on the following questions, because we will come back to them as we progress from Book One into Book Two:  \u003cbr\u003eWhere did marriage originate from? \u003cbr\u003eAre there certain revelations mankind needs to understand and embrace in this sacred union that most of us have no clue of?  \u003cbr\u003eWhat is the Creator and Officiator's intents and purposes in marriage?  \u003cbr\u003eWhy is marriage implanted into the hearts of every human being? \u003cbr\u003eHow must we enter this all-important relationship?  \u003cbr\u003eDid the Creator imbed certain secrets in this union He wants His children to know for their own good?  \u003cbr\u003eHow do I build a solid, godly relationship and preserve my marriage? \u003cbr\u003eAre there secrets to maintaining great relationship?  \u003cbr\u003eWhat are some of the obstacles to a healthy relationship, and what must I avoid?  \u003cbr\u003eHow does my role in the relationship affect my marriage? \u003cbr\u003eHow do I deal with conflicts and obstacles in my relationship?  \u003cbr\u003eWhat boundaries must I set to protect my marriage? And much more.\u003cbr\u003eIt will be encouraging for all married or prospective couples to ponder over the above questions very often.  For I believe that when we know and understand the origin and the foundation on what we fell in love for, or are engaged in, or are preparing to enter in, we will contract marriage with carefulness and take all the necessary precautions to honor the Originator in our marital lives. I have personally asked myself these questions, wanting\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ships in 10 to 15 days","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46839776477342,"sku":"ADS-9781667866826","price":32.78,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0400\/9043\/5742\/files\/9781667866826.jpg?v=1778826407","url":"https:\/\/classicbargains.com.au\/products\/9781667866826","provider":"Classic Bargains Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
