THE PRICE OF PEACE AND HARMONY IN EVERY MARRIAGE.
This might be of help to those married out there, this should make you understand that no body is perfect so you have to fill in for your partner in their area of weakness.
One Sunday evening I listened to a preacher who was sharing a message about peace in marriage. He said his wife would always leave the television on at night and go to bed, the worse part is they lived in a country where you have to pay for the hours you watch your TV or keep your TV on. So for his wife leaving the TV on to bed increased the bill every month.
He said that attitude annoyed him and he was always angree with his wife for doing that bit she never changed. It got to a point it almost became a problem in their marriage. So one day while ruminating over the issue he asked himself "is my marriage not worth extra $50 every end of the month? He said to himself $50 is not too much bill to make peace reign in his family so he decided to be paying the bill and all of a sudden his wife stopped leaving the TV on to bed put put if off before she goes to bed.
In some homes, the wife is the one who wakes first to prepare the family for the day activity, bath the kids prepare brakefast and set things up while in some homes the husband do such just to make peace reign in the family. The nature of his wife job might be stressful, an understanding man will not wake up and shout at his wife but understand and help her out till the kids will be grown enough to do them their selves.
I heard the story of a man whose wife will never monitor the fuel gauge of her car while driving, its when the car finally stops on the road then she realizes that the car has run out of fuel, the first person she'll call is her husband. He will be the one to find a way to fuel the car wherever she is. After this repeating it self for months and almost brought a strain in the family he had to find a way. What he did was, during the he takes the car and top the fuel which will be enough for her through the week
There are lot of prices we have to pay to ensure peace in the home. Many times we need to do things we don't like for the sake of peace, no price is to hard to pay.
