The Four “F”s of A Great Marriage

The Four “F”s of A Great Marriage

Reading Time: 2 minutes

1. Focus
A great marriage is made of a couple who are so into themselves. They focus on each other’s needs. They love each other tirelessly. They are best friends of themselves.

For the Lord God will help me; therefore shall I not be confounded: therefore have I set my face like a flint, and I know that I shall not be ashamed.

Isa 50:7 (KJV)

God will help, but you must set your face like a flint, which means to focus. Focusing on each other will help you to be faithful to each other in your marriage.

2. Forgive
A fantastic marital journey is made up of two forgivers. In fact, there is such thing as advanced forgiveness. As couples, avoid bitterness like a plague. Runaway from strife and don’t touch it with a mile-long pole.

3. Forget
Oh, you must learn to forgive the hurts of the past. Dear couples, help your spouse by not repeating what you promised you won’t do again. If you keep repeating a particular thing you promised not to do, you make it difficult for your spouse to forget.

Each reiteration of the act will be a painful reminder of that which has been buried.

Absolutely forgetting a thing is almost impossible, because that has to be a condition of amnesia, however, you can forget the pain that comes with it.

4. Forsake
There are things to forsake as you move on in the marital journey. There are things your spouse does not like and which keep bringing conflicts from time to time. Forsake them, that is what growing is all about.

Don’t assume a fixated posture like you cannot change. It’s only God that changeth not, and you are not God.

You deal with the flesh. You put the body under. You remain disciplined. You get better by the day.

Good morning. God bless you.
