Does match- making necessarily lead to a blissful marriage?
Match
making sometimes lead to a very blissful marriage. Not always! It's not
how people meet and where they met that results in a blissful marriage
but compatibility, humility and mostly God's grace that leads to bliss
in every marriage
Your
writes up are mainly centered on relationship, what's your advice for
couples going through rough time in their marriages? .
I
have had a lot of relationship experience, good bad, worse, hideous and
horrible. I talk mostly from my experience and biblical commandments.
Couples who are going through tough time in their marriage should humble
themselves and learn to show remorse and forgive eachother always..
They should Pray fervently and without ceasing making God the centre of
their marriage, trusting God to handle every marital difficulties.
There's nothing God can't do
What's your stand on gender equality?
Gender
equality to me is acceptable when it comes to a woman having equal
rights with a man in areas of work, political appointments etc but at
home in marriage, a woman can never be equal to her husband. Her husband
is the head and the woman must submit. A lot of women get it wrong and
take their gender equality rights into their marriages. They mix
everything up and that's how we got the whole feminism mess.
