Divorce Among Christians

There is high level of divorce rates in the United States, and most are said to be coming from Christians. I think the reason for the divorce rate is because people are getting married without seeking the Lord's will first. They want to go on how they feel in their hearts, but your heart can be deceiving. We must really seek God, and make sure that this is the person that we are meant to be with. After all He knows what we need in a spouse more than we do because He is the one that created us. Satan does not want any marriage to last. Everybody knows he is out to kill, steal, and destroy. You have to put God first in your life. He has to be the center of your marriage. He is the foundation that you want to build upon. If He is not the center of your relationship then it will not last. Another reason why I think marriage is such a failure is because you have to work at it. For example, if you are doing all the work in your friendship; such as, calling him or her all the time, but they never call you that much if any. Eventually, you will get tired of always having to do all the work. You will in time give up on the friendship. It takes work to be in a marriage. It is so vital for couples to communicate on how they feel. I have a friend who is thinking about getting a divorce. I asked him if he has ever told his wife some of the issues he has toward her. He told me no, well how can his wife become a better partner to him if he does not tell her what he needs. If you are married and are going through some trials, seek the Lord. He will always come through for you.

Hi Kay - nice blog :) I think as well as what you mentioned, some people act very selfishly in marriage and that includes some Christians. We can't operate in worldly principles and expect Kingdom results. For me, when I began focusing on what *I* could be doing better and simply doing it because it was biblical then an average marriage started to become great.
