Marriage Myths

There are so many myths that people believe about marriage that need to be broken. Never forget, God is the creator of marriage and should be the source of where you go for your marriage.

Myth 1.) The grass must be greener on the other side.

Stop looking at other marriages and making the determination that they have a happier marriage. You only see what they portray to the outside world. You have absolutely no idea of what they have going on within the walls of their home.

Myth 2.) Things will just fall into place.

Marriage is work. We must continually work at it, for we know faith without works is dead. Things just don't fall into place, you must set the foundation and continually work for your marriage.

Myth 3.) Marriage will make you whole.

Genesis 1:26 says, "Let us make man in our image according to our likeness, let him dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over the cattle, over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth." You were made whole when God created you.

These are just a few of the common myths that the world has convinced us of about marriage. It is why you must always rely on the unchanging and uncompromising word of God for your marriage.
