I am so amazed at how much love grows when it is fed. I already love my wife more than anyone else in the world, and as much as I could possibly love. But that love continues to get stronger and grow deeper every single day. Yeah, we have our moments and we are far from perfect, but we really love each other. It's so amazing and I know that it's all because of God. I know beyond any doubts that He put us together and we were meant for each other (soul-mates).
I am not trying to take credit or to rub it anyone's face, but I know to some of you who may have had rocky relationships it might seem that way. But, back when I was single, I put everything in God's hands and just gave Him control over that area of my life. When I was looking for the right person I let God choose for me. I know God rewarded me for letting him have it His way and I just thank God every day for how he has blessed me. I was just wondering if any of you out there have experienced what I am talking about.

I hear you and know what you are talking about! My husband and I get along much better when we attend church together. It is amazing to me what will happen when we miss a week or two. We begin to bicker over the smallest things and become resentful of each other. When we spend time in prayer it seems to make all the bad stuff less important. God is good and He wants all married people to grow in their love for each other.

I couldn't agree more right now myself and my wife are both experiencing a period of ill health that threatens to leave us without a house, jobs etc, but knowing (not just thinking he might be)that God is in control of our situation makes our marriage relationship even stronger.

A loving couple, husband and wife, is the second most valuable existence in the family. A true husband and wife give and receive love that is unconditional. As newly-weds, their love does not begin as absolute, eternal love. But as their relationship matures, their love should become an absolute bond, taking after Gods attributes of absoluteness and eternity. Then their true love will bring happiness and joy to the family.
But even if a husband and wife enjoy the most ideal relationship, and it goes no further than the couple, it will not bring the absolute value of eternal happiness and joy. Therefore, couples need to have children. Imagine what would happen if all couples decided not to have children, saying that they would rather just enjoy their own happiness?
