WHAT HAPPENED TO THE COMMITMENT?


Today, I'll be talking about one of the reason for divorce in the society. I'm so not in the position to talk about this cos' i ain't married but when something becomes a trend in life, we all tend to have our opinion about it. Divorce usually starts from hurt that is not forgiven, and one thing for sure is that hurt people never make the right decision because they just want to hurt people. Divorces are based on conditions ,so you have to be willing to pay the price and not stop at the first instant of hurt. I get it, he or she made a mistake, but there is a covenant of marriage that is grounded on Commitment to Unconditional Love. Instead of looking for the excuses (Conditions), its the Commitment to never leave you nor forsake you, to stay for better or for worse, to love you through good times and in bad times. The worse/bad times is not suppose to change your Commitment but reaffirm it because your Commitment to your marriage is parallel to your commitment to God.
Your marriage does not have to be perfect but your Commitment has to be perfect because some of y'all are saying 'but she/he did....' , the 'but' has to get out of the way cos' when it's unconditional, there is no 'but'. It doesn't take much to make a woman feel better, just tell her you appreciate her and how much you love her because women are sometimes moved by what they hear, even if they don't see it. Ladies, make your man feel like the king of your castle by stop being your boring self, go out of your way to do something special for him because men are motivated by what they see. I usually tell my friends that "what ever you say you won't do, another lady would be willing to do even more".
Finally, I think if couples would see that marriage is a school where you don't just go to play but first of all, pray to get in, then you are taught a lesson, then you learn, you pray to succeed, then you learn again etc. It doesn't stop. it's a continuous process. Forget the person you used to know and appreciate the one you know now but always remember the Commitment.
