MARRIAGE: 4 PROMISES GUYS CAN’T
KEEP
The word promise is one of the most
occurring words in marital relationships.
Promise means to tell someone that you will
definitely do something or something will
happen.
For a courtship to lead to marriage, a
promise must be kept. Even a lasting
Marriage is a promise well kept.
In courtship, guys make several promises to
ladies who make them happy and eager for
wedding but there are some of these
promises that cannot be kept by men in
marriage. Is it becoming a puzzle to you?
Read on and get the clarifications.
1. I WILL ALWAYS BE WITH YOU: Being
together as husband and wife is one of the
most treasured times in marriage but it is
not possible to be together for 24 hours in
365 days in a year. He can’t always be
where you were all the time. There are
times both of you will be in two different
places. For instance when you go to your
various offices or when one of you is on
official assignment out of your locality.
What matter most is faithfulness though
you may be out of sight but not out of
heart. Don’t play a fast game against one
another. Let there be re-assurance and
constant phone calls echoed with this
magical trio i.e. “I love you”.
2. I WILL NEVER HURT YOU: It is not
possible for two people to live together
without offending one another. He will
definitely offend you while you too cannot
but offend him.
Though it may not be deliberate even in
courtship, expect it. If he’s keeping a clean
sheet in courtship beware! He must be
pretending and he will later explode in
marriage. Certain actions of his will hurt
you but you must be ready to forgive
without nursing its wound. Expect mis-
understanding, it is the pathway to
understanding. No matter what happens,
friendliness should be a hallmark of a
Christian home because marriage is a union
between two imperfect people working
towards perfection.
3. I WILL D0 EVERYTHING FOR YOU: He
must have turned this to lyrics that is sang
to your hearing almost every time you meet
but the truth is you will be disappointed in
marriage, If this is your expectations
because he can’t do everything for you. He
may teach you how to drive, pay the house
rents, bought clothes for you but consider
when he will be down without physical
ability to do anything even machine,
breakdown atimes. He can’t carry the
pregnancy for you, it’s exclusive for ladies,
and he can only demonstrate care during the
period. He can be in the labour room with
you during delivery but can’t experience the
pain in the process of delivery. But the real
man will stay with his wife in hospital
duringdelivery while careless men will
neglect their wives at this period.
4. I WILL PROVIDE FOR ALL YOUR
NEEDS: Don’t go into marriage with the
aim of having all your needs met lest you
lose passion for the man you married. There
atimes when something are not within his
reach which may be due to financial
inability. Of course, he can’t give you what
he didn’t have. You don’t have to be
offended for marriage is not just about
receiving alone, you too have to give
something in return-contribute your own
quota towards the development of that
union. Complement one another’s effort.
Don’t look for what to get rather seek for
what to give. He can’t provide for all your
needs, only God can do this. Get this into
your mind and don’t be offended while he
falls short of this.
Y'all can add yours.
