35 ~ Why the First Years of Marriage Can Be So Hard & How to Make Them Easier

Many couples who have been married a while ask, why does marriage have to be so hard? Why does it feel like such work and is it worth it?    Marriage can be difficult, as you take two people, from different backgrounds and throw them together into one house, 24/7 to essentially duke out their differences. It’s no wonder that some find their marriage to be a struggle in the beginning.   Some marriages seem to get stuck here and the struggles go on for years. Leading to either a miserable marriage or divorce.   Today I’m sharing what I learned during those years. Why it’s hard, why the process is necessary and some tips to make it a little easier.   Let’s get started.   Scripture References Genesis 2:18, 21-25 Ephesians 5:22-25, 28-29 Ephesians 6:1-3 Proverbs 23:22 Exodus 20:3 Matthew 6:33 Deuteronomy 6:4-5 Colossians 3:18-20     Review & Follow ~ Please consider taking a moment to leave a review.
