In some areas our marriage is very good, but some very real issues are there. It's good to hear you don't it doesn't have to be all together

The ending: I don’t think it’s leading in vulnerability (father) it’s about leading in Christs ultimate strength, being love.

So many good men need to hear this and know they’re not crazy and neither are their wives. There’s a lot of men wanting to do things right but don’t have the tools. These are the tools!

I don’t think we have a good grasp on the definition of marriage in the Bible. Jesus says the wife is as the church. Are we saying that Jesus eventually leaves the church because=eternity?

Forgiveness does not mean reconciliation. I have to remind myself of that everyday, as well as remembering how much I’ve been forgiven. I also I have to remember to get out of the way so that God can deal with my unfaithful husband, I don’t need to do that.

Most men don't realize they are getting a divorce until a week before their wife tells them. A great way to avoid that issue is DON'T GET MARRIED - particularly if you make more or spend less than your spouse.

I'm the youngest and I'm not funny nor a good sales person. I grew up in a toxic, dysfunctional family. So there's a lot of inner work I'm doing to try to heal from that. Maybe you're talking more about healthy families?

@bmack6180Ай бұрын
Theory doesn't fit my family or most of my friend's family. It's not a thing funny about my youngest brother, the baby of the family. My oldest and youngest siblings are confused as hell.... followers. Middle child selfish as hell.... It's all about him... every relationship is transactional. In my family, #2 and 4 are the compromiser, negotiator and get along better with others... not perfect but more self-sufficient because in my house, my parents were busy saving or propping up #1 and 5. And then indulging #3, who needed all the attention.

Wow, do you feel like you grew up in a toxic family? I know I did. 🤦🏾♀️😭
@bmack6180Ай бұрын
@leahv.2537 I'm not exactly sure if you were responding to my comment. I'm not sure if I would say toxic. Parents who did the best they could. We were never homeless, hungry, without heat, clothes, etc. We had the necessary things for school. We took family trips mainly to visit our out of town grandparents, aunts, and uncles once, sometimes twice a year. My parents were much better grandparents, may they R.I.P., though. So it must have been about time. Maybe it was the grind of trying to raise 5 kids with no nearby help from relatives. We survived and thrived. Two health professionals and 3 government workers, two of whom retired from management positions. It was a tiny bit of tongue in cheek in my first comment, but it's mainly true. Number #1 and 4 needed more hand holding. Number 3 is just as I said selfish, no exaggerating there. And number 2 and 4 are more steady and focused but not perfect.

It’s sad but yes, I know a person who married her husband just to compete with other women who were able to build a happy family. Because of that she overly controls him, manipulates him, forced him to have a child with her, and now he doesn’t even function as he used to anymore. He’s so beaten down mentally and emotionally. It’s not good to watch as you know she only married him out of her selfishness but doesn’t love or cherish him.

Marriage isn't about you. It is about your spouse. You'll never find a purpose in marriage unless you put your spouse ahead of yourself.
