Consequences

Hi all, writing about maturity got me thinking.growing up in Africa a marriage was only bad if a man beat his wife or if one party is unfaithful. Now I have come to understand that people are faced with different types of abuse in a marriage. Emotional,verbal and financial are types that can be found in a marriage. Emotional abuse comes in the form of saying or doing things that would belittle the other person. If you abuse your partner in any form please stop because it hurts more coming from the one you love. What we need to do is have a little more patience with each other, think before we speak, help each other out, talk to each other about everything and show love in more ways than we do now. The consequences of our words and actions would be seen in our kids in the near future. To them we can't do wrong. Let's adopt 1st Corinthians 13:4 Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up. What tells us that God has plans for every aspect of our lives including marriage? We hide under selfishness and ego when none of that really matters. I will stop here because I wrote a second part but it didn't save and I can't remember it word for word so sorry guys. See u soon..
