LOVE DYNAMICS IN MARRIAGE

source

Good day Parishioners, as we all know marriage is ordained by God and was first established with the first man and woman (Adam and Eve) God created man and saw the need for the man to have an helpmeet and God decided to provide Him one because He doesn't want him to be alone. All the animals He created and told Adam to give names to where all having its female besides it and were not left alone.

Genesis 2:18

And the LORD God said, It is not good that the man should be alone, I will make him an help meet for him

There are so many marriages that are in chaos not because of anything but the reason is that they lack "Knowledge of relationship dynamics".
Hosea 4:6 talks about what it says "My people perish for lack of knowledge". When you are in a relationship/marriage, and you lack the basics of that marriage or you don't know the purpose why you are together, there is probability that the relationship/marriage will fail.

Both husband and wife should understand something very important that the image of God is best expressed in the combination of male and female (Genesis 1:27). Human never instituted marriage but God purposely established it for our own enjoyment. Marriage is divine and nothing more. God has brought marriage so that it can redeem us in the human race. To crown it all, If not for the knowledge God brought about this marriage, our Saviour which is Jesus Christ won't have been born, talkless of coming to die for us.

HOW DO YOU UNDERSTAND THE "LOVE LANGUAGE"?
It is very important to understand the love language so that you will enjoy your marriage with your spouse. If there is no understanding of love language among couples, problems are bound to occur. For it not to occur at all, I will be listing some love language which I think when you start practicing it, there won't be any problem:

• Spending Quality time with each other: Finding ways to spend time with each other is so much fun and both party will be happy, like going out, celebrating birthdays, wedding anniversary and so on

• As a woman, you need to start doing things you know your husband will be happy of, things like cooking for him, you help each other to do household chores etc.

• Go out to buy gifts, exchange gift with each other. This makes couples happy with each other, no matter how small the gift may be, appreciate one another

• Couples should learn to compliment each other with words like, " I love you", "Thank you" "You look handsome/beautiful". These little words count so much

• The last thing is communicate with each other emotionally. For example, kissing, holding hands, pecking, hugging etc
