One of the most important things we can do is face the partner we
are married to. It is a necessity for a marriage to succeed. A couple is joined
as one, and must communicate as one as well. It is so important for them to
lean on each other, and be one in spirit. Many times when stress comes, this is
the first thing that is altered. Being "too busy" leads to the
feelings such as "I can do this alone" or "I can handle this
without you". This is something that needs to be avoided. When afflictions
and pains come, that is when a couple must become even closer. I love the book
written by H. Wallace Goddard called "Drawing Heaven Into Your
Marriage". The book talks about the spiritual aspects of a marriage, which
is ultimately the most important element. Goddard talks about replacing evil
with goodness, and explains a story about Jesus Christ. The ultimate message
was saying that it takes strong faith to remove doubt, sadness, and pain. It
also takes strong faith to make a marriage successful. I have seen many people
whom I consider role models in my life really grasp these elements and extend
beyond them. People I have met are just beaming with faith, kindness, and a
peaceful heart. It makes me feel as if I have a chance to be that way someday.
In many cases, that peaceful heart comes from trials within a marriage. I hope
to become that way someday. By turning toward my husband, trusting his faith
and having my own, we can conquer the most destructive storms in life.
