Experiencing The Best of Marriage, Family and Parenting

The discovery of purpose will always bring a sense of responsibility. And until purpose is discovered responsibility will be very difficult to be accepted.
Marriage, being a major purpose in everybody` s life, is a synonym of great responsibility and is therefore meant for matured people and not “boys”.
As a matter of fact, one of the marks of maturity is the ability to take responsibilities as regards the approach and handling of things and people daily.
“A prudent man forseeth the evil and hideth himself but the simple pass on and are punished” ( Proverbs 22: 3). I don’t think there is anyone who on hearing that his house is on fire and will not look for a solution or
a way to put off or extinguish the fire. The rate of divorce in these last days is astonishing and if something is not done consciously to stop this madness, the effects might be devastating. Men need to discover their role in assisting their wives in the day to day running of the home in order to avoid undue pressures on their wives that might graduate or generate into something else if care is not taken. A husband must assume the role of a father, a husband, a friend and a lover in order for him to be able to manage his wife effectively. A lot of men have neglected their wives to their own hurt in the day to day running of
their home and the centre of their marriage life is no longer holding. As consequence, instead of enjoying themselves, they are managing one another and eating the bread of sorrow.
