<p>Marriage is about a team, strong  and stable enough to even bring more souls into this earth.  That&#8217;s a pretty hefty responsibility right?  But what do you see today?  All around you..</p>
<p>Teams dissolving, marriages being torn apart by worldly things, and most sadly, we see a lot of &#8220;I&#8221; and &#8220;Self&#8221; in the media when it comes to marriage.  Really, what else can someone be thinking when they abandon a child?  or even a partner, teammate, spouse, etc.. that&#8217;s been counting on them?</p>
<p>I know, sick right?</p>
<p>I thought the same thing &#8211; so here&#8217;s what I have found out&#8230; someone needs to lead, or be the head of the household.  Better said, one of you needs to be the foundation, and in the best case &#8211; resting firmly upon Christ.</p>
<p>Even if you think it might be impossible to come to a resolution, having been in a distraught marriage over many years, change is very possible and it begins with &#8220;U&#8221;.  You may have guessed it, but &#8220;understanding&#8221; and wisdom are the principle things.  Work on yourself and put out the right energy, and who knows what can happen!</p>
<p>I hope you found this short blurb to be of some value in your marriage.</p>
