I have the privileged of witnessing the binding of two hearts yesterday through the sacrament of matrimony for my two mates in work. While watching the main actors of the momentous event, I could not help but be reflective of this mystery called marriage. I know that marriage is a lifetime commitment and I am just awed by the idea that of all the partners in the world, why is it that we come into such a relationship with our partners now (husband or wife)?
I have been married for 9 years and same as with others, never in my life that I dreamt of mating a woman like my wife yet with God’s mysterious ways, I’m very lucky to have met and have committed my life to a woman like her. Just like the experience of my two mates yesterday, the joys and positive energy were well displayed in their faces.
I have known both of them for almost 3 years and I know that they are loving each other…supporting each other which are the essenial ingredients in marriage. Sad to say, some marriages failed for many reasons. Is it their destiny or is it somebody’s fault? Several factors why a certain marriage fail and I am not an authority to judge one yet one of those reasons that causes a break up in marriage is the inability of any or both parties to keep the fire burning in the relationship. I’m completely aware that it is easier than done but with one’s commitment and true love, I know that any marriage will last a lifetime.
After all, when we said yes during the ceremony, it is a commitment meant a lifetime. May both husband and wife continue to support each other notwithstanding the storms and thunders of marriage since after them will come the sunrise.
