The bible shows that God's expectations for marriage is so different from our own. When god said, "It is not good for man to he alone," and when he created Eve as an answer to that aloneness, he did more than just make a provision for man's needs. Marriage will allow us to serve someone else's needs. Those who are married can expect not only the joys of the relationship , but also the responsibilities that come with it. In the book of Paul he indicate that in committing oneself to each other they must spend their time working hard to please each other. Marriage also will change us for the better and sometime because of wrong motive it do the opposite. But I believe with the right motive marriage can be a fulfilling one.

I am wary whenever someone mentions that god said this and god said that. If anyone had a direct line to god then there would not be so many diverging theories about him. How come god says different things to different people? I am just wondering. Cheers!!

The Bible says that though, so God actually DID say that. For sure.

Hey Willy, I agree with you. Marriage can change all of us for the better as long as both people are commited and spend time working on the relationship. Relationships are work. Both people have to spend time working on it, otherwise it won't work if one person puts more effort into it and the other person doesn't put any effort. I do believe though tath with the right people who together work on the relationship marriage can be a very fullfilling one. Shihtzumama
