HOME TONIC​ ​Secret 1​ Everyone you marry has a weakness. Only God does not have a weakness. So if you focus on your spouse's weakness you can't get the best out of his strength. ​Secret 2​ Everyone has a dark history. No one is an angel. When you get married or you want to get married stop digging into someone's past. What matters most is the present life of your partner. Old things have passed away. Forgive and forget. Focus on the present and the future. ​Secret 3​ Every marriage has its own challenges. Marriage is not a bed of roses. Every good marriage has gone through its own test of blazing fire. True love proves in times of challenges.  Fight for your marriage. Make up your mind to stay with your spouse in times of need. Remember the vow ​For better for worse​. In sickness and in health be there. ​Secret 4​ Every marriage has different levels of success. Don't compare your marriage with any one else. We can never be equal. Some will be far, some behind. To avoid marriage stresses, be patient, work hard and with time your marriage dreams shall come true. ​Secret 5​ To get married is declaring war. When you get married you must declare war against enemies of marriage. Some enemies of marriage are: Ignorance  Prayerlessness Unforgiveness  Third party influence  Stinginess Stubbornness  Lack of love  Rudeness Laziness  Disrespect  Cheating  ​Be ready to fight to maintain your marriage zone.​ ​Secret 6​ There is no perfect marriage. There is no ready made marriage. Marriage is hard work. Volunteer yourself to work daily on it. Marriage is like a car that needs proper maintenance and proper service. If this is not done it will break down somewhere exposing the owner to danger or some unhealthy circumstances. Let us not be careless about our marriages.  ​Secret 7​ God cannot give you a complete person you desire. He gives you the person in the form of raw materials in order for you to mould the person that you desire. This can only be achieved through prayer, love and Patience ​Secret 8​ Getting married implies taking a huge risk. You can not predict what will happen in the future.  Situations may change so leave room for adjustments. Husband can lose his good job or you may fail to have babies...and so on,and so forth. All these circumstances require you to be prayerful otherwise you might divorce. ​Secret 9​ Marriage is not a contract. It is  permanent. It needs total commitment. Love is the glue that sticks the couple together.  Divorce start in the mind... and the devil feeds the mind. Never ever entertain thoughts of getting a divorce. Never threaten your spouse with divorce. Choose to remain married. God hates divorce. ​Secret 10​ Every marriage has a price to pay. Marriage is like a bank account. It is the money that you deposit (or save) that you withdraw. If you don't deposit love, peace and care into your marriage, you are not a candidate for a blissful home...(expect no happiness in your home). ​So today let us pray for our marriages and ask God to help us where we are lacking in the marriage.  May God bless you u all

This is so true....we do not realize the devils whispers to try to break marriages apart. Also, I first hand agree with the third party influence...people will tell you divorce is the easier way...but the problem is that everyone thinks marriage is the "bed of roses" and we start comparing our lives with pictures and stories on social media, except that that is not reality. Every marriage had problems. And there are people that even rub it in your face that they don't....

Couldn't agree more with the prayer. Thanks for this post!

Marriage is what you make of it

If you think marriage doesn't change anything and it's just a piece of paper then that is how you will treat it. If your partner feels this way, then they have no reason to put any effort into it either. If you get married you will know there is an "out" and will use it when the going gets tough.

I have a cousin who is in his early 20's and has been married for about a
I love your post, OP! I agree 100%!
yayacarrington Davidsmommy, Catholicism is steeped in tradition. Your ceremony sounds like it was beautiful, though.
