Marriage is hard work

Letters

WHEN we pray, we do not pray to God to prevent the storm.
Rather, we pray that He gives us the grace, strength and wisdom to surf when the storm rises.
There is no perfect relationship.
Relationships always come with challenges.
Challenges are the beauty of life; they are what makes life interesting; and so is it with marriage.
When the storm rises, we should be able to sail through it.
It would be unwise to expect perfection from a union of two imperfect people.
You might think that there are “many fish in the sea” and decide to let your fish go because you’d rather have a barracuda.
And that barracuda you catch may have all the ingredients and vitamins you want, but then you realise you were allergic to barracuda and can’t have it anymore.
I believe that nothing goes bad in a marriage – if something bad happens, you fix it.
You made the choice so stick with it.
