LIVING FOR A LOVE THAT LASTS Faithfulness in marriage seems to be the only quality everyone values. But the Bible says faithfulness and loyalty are require in any organization. In fact, nothing will succeed without the commitment of faithful men. What is faithfulness? Simply put, it is keeping your word. It is standing by your covenant, vow, or agreement. It should not be assumed. What I mean is that you should demand someone to be faithful to the what the person did not say. If say I love you, did I include I will love only you? But in marriage, the vows and the agreement made at the alter say ‘you only’ will have the body, submission and loyalty till death separates. The vow, not the feelings should determine. What you felt when you said, not what you felt when you said it should decide your position. Keeping you word is called faithfulness. Loyalty means working in your favour committed to you trust, being on your side. What many people call unfaithfulness is not. If you do not spell out the terms, you could be wrong. If you said you will always love me, and you now say you do no more love me, you are unfaithful. If you say you are my wife or husband and you share marital sexual intimacy with someone else, you are unfaithful. If you never had sex outside or vow, but your heart and affection is stronger with someone outside, what then do we call it, That is the pause. I would rather have your heart than your body. If you give me your body and someone else has your heart, I have lesser part. But it is all in the vow. From my experience, people do easily what they feel like doing, not what is necessarily right or wrong. If we don’t feel well, then it is bad. If it feels good, then it must be good. What could be wrong with something that feels good? We quarrel with those in the gay act, but do not reckon with what they feel. We would fight for what we feel than with what we know. Jesus felt our infirmities; he is touched with it. We respond to what touches us. And I think we should consider that reality. If then you want to be faithful to your spouse or you want your spouse to remain faithful to you, clearly define the terms of faithfulness. You can say “as long as we are together, please don’t have sex with any other.” That is what the marriage vow demands. You could also say, “Please, don’t love another the way you love me.” You must be clear on it. I will share few tips on how you can be sure to have a lasting romance with faithfulness in marriage. Practice friendship, not leadership. People tend to be free with their friends than with their bosses. They respect bosses, but love their friends. If you are authoritative demanding things to be done in a particular way, strict unbending, unyielding and always insisting on your pattern, you may lose that friendship. In friendship, secrets are told. We tell each other our blunder in trust. if we have such relationship with our spouses, it will do well. I friendship, we look more than the form. Jesus took the form of a servant and because of that, most people do not believe Him as Lord. There are people who like what they see, but not what really is. The real person is not there. I once told someone that the eyes are never satisfied. If you have sex with someone or marry a person because person is beautiful, the temptation desire someone else will be there. If anything happens to what see, affection may dwindle Jonathan hath for David was not body. Let us love beyor Ignore fantasies; they are give no place to regret. David see the kind of person I remarry…” it will give your satisfaction. leave fantasies as fantasies them to heart. If God good, I need rain. What God not worth having. Learn the art of satisfaction. if you really want to satisfy, learn new ways of love- making, kissing, etc. give room for experiments. When some people give rules, I wonder if they have really thought about the body. If they have really thought about the body. It is not every time that there should be thrusting during intercourse; there could just be mutual masturbation. Some people talk about masturbation as though it was totally wrong. That could do when the man do not have all the energy to thrust. It could be very satisfying for the wife sometimes to be carefully caressed and masturbated by the man to organ In the body is the skin. Every part of the body can be used for a sexual thrill. Some people even say it is wrong to have sex during pregnancy. How do they come by that information? Use right words. We are justified or condemned by our hearts. What we say to each other can either ender our hearts seprate us. you carefully arrange words to courage, lift and satisfy your will be difficult to seek anot. Words during offences. Seek the time. I mean all the time. Be part of each other’s life. Do things together, I learn the trade, do the work, chores; do assignment together, cook and get involved in each other’s activity. Don’t leave them alone. Don’t flirt. Don’t play that game. It is dangerous. You may lose; you may fail. You may fall, don’t flirt with words of features. You will never be innocent. Don’t quarrel often. You may win an argument, but lose a friend or a wife. Don’t let it get to heart. Make your points without making an enemy. See each other’s side. Submit to one another. Sometimes, just compromise. Seek counsel and prayer. If you do that regularly, you will do well. Don’t say we don’t third party. There are some issued can settle, just as can’t.
