GETTING married is one of the greatest joys in anyone’s life.
And yet almost one in two marriages end in divorce.
Despite this bleak reality, rather than surrender to the culture of divorce, couples need to work through their difficulties.
In this world of instant results, far too many couples give up on their marriage vows the moment the going gets tough.
At the same time, couples should consider their suitability to each other more seriously before they tie the knot.
Last Sunday was World Marriage Day, when couples gathered at St Brigid’s Church, Red Hill in Brisbane to celebrate their love for each other.
Marriage is the coming together of a man and woman in the eyes of God. If more couples remembered God’s presence in their married union, fewer marriages would end in divorce.
Happy St Valentine’s Day.
