What Isn't A Perfect Marriage

What Isn't A Perfect Marriage: 

A perfect marriage is most definitely not a union of two perfect people.

A perfect marriage is surely not a life shared where everything comes easy.; all peaches and cream. That there would be an unrealistic fantasy.

Because in a all reality LIFE happens. That means that there will be changing Seasons. Ups, downs, twists and turns. Think about it, how else would the power and divinity of God be more glorified if there was not some event or circumstances in the very lives of married couples to actually LOVE one another through TOGETHER? Love is not just that physical passion shared between spouses. Love in marriage is a deeply shared sanctuary that is built around the union of the marriage. A safe shelter from the storms. A place of acceptance and peace. The kind of peace that is comforting and edifying one another when any number of odds may be stacked against you.

What is a perfect marriage? We can only speak for our own. And we've continued to be inspired by other loving marriages, that a perfect marriage is a union so deeply committed in mind, body, and a prayerful and humble spirit to Go The Distance! "In sickness and in health, for better or worse..."

A perfect marriage to us is that inner certainty that Come what may, WE continue to thrive and endure TOGETHER, with each other, FOR each other, standing on the very foundation of PRAYER. Do we have the perfect marriage? To us we do, and we are not alone in this understanding.

Our marriage is perfectly aligned with God's Purpose for us both together and as the individuals we came into this marriage with in our separate beings. Intimacy, intimacy is continuously developed each and every moment we share as a married couple. It's the grand moments as well as the little moments. It's the laughter and the tears, it's the harmony and then the occasional moments sprinkled in of imbalance all combined.

A perfect marriage for us is an all weather treated union that is unshakable; it's unstoppable. It runs deep with tenderness and love that is well rooted in a faith in God and each other. Our marriage is a daily celebration of Togetherness. We could have everything or nothing in this world but in our marriage we say we have EVERYTHING!
