Christian marriage problems are not much different than non
Christian marriage problems and both require healing at times. There are
problems dealing with communication, trust, intimacy etc. and unfortunately,
mental, emotional and physical abuse are also problems in a Christian Marriage.
The problems that Christian's face in their marriage can
easily lead to a breakup if they aren't wise enough to deal with them the right
way. Often times, couples find themselves arguing about non important issues
and sometimes frustration sets in and small problems become big problems.
One major problem that you will never be able to solve or
change is that you are human and not perfect. Therefore, you and your spouse
will have problems in your marriage, some little ones and perhaps some big
ones. When you do it's important who, how and when you address the problem and
begin to move on.
Here are some tips for healing a Christian Marriage;
Believe and trust God and His Word to help you heal your
broken marriage. God wants to help you move forward and not stay still or worse
go backwards in your relationship.
Forgive and forget past problems or actions in your marriage
that keep you grounded in the past. Don't let your growth be blocked by your
past problems.
Work with your spouse to reconcile any important differences
you have in your marriage and remove repetitive actions that you know lead to
problems.
Give your best effort to avoid behaviors that result in pain
for your spouse.
Don't hold feelings of anger or contempt toward your spouse
for past indiscretions. If you can't let go of negative feelings you have for
your spouse it will be difficult to heal your relationship problems.
Guard who you discuss your marriage problems with and who
you rely on for advice. Not everyone is wise and has the right perspective for
your marriage. You don't want to make small problems big ones because of bad
advice you receive.
There are ways for you to resolve conflicts, improve your
communication, and build a stronger, richer and almost problem free Christian
marriage. It doesn't mean that you won't have problems but you should be able
to handle them from a Godly perspective and your Christian marriage problems
should not be more than together you can't solve.
Conclusion:
God and I want your marriage to succeed. I'm sure prayers
for your marriage are being offered up to God and God is in the business of
answering prayers.
