Always Learning: Is Marriage Hard Work?

Always Learning: Is Marriage Hard Work?: I was talking with a precious friend of mine yesterday and we were discussing my blog and she made this comment: "Marriage is difficult... do yourself a favor women and check out this godly woman's blog! :P



here's the comment I left on this post on her blog:Hi Lori!



" I feel like marriage can be really hard like during the adjustment period, when you're trying to get used to living together or like you said if you have a strong personality. I can relate because i have ALWAYS been bossy and am now LEARNING how to "boss femininely" when my husband is around the kids and I, however i need to do it full time not just when he is around! uh oh!! Marriage has been really hard for me, but I am in process like you mentioned here, I am learning to bite my tounge not defend the kids, not suggest to many things to do or volunteer his time etc..praictice will make perfect! I read Created to be his help meet and it stopped me dead in my tracks!! It was like a road map and I saw myself headed in the WRONG direction so I made a turn around. I may stumble along this road less traveled but boy is the view a whole lot prettier, the people a whole lot friendlier and the future a whole lot brighter! I love that book! That and fascinating womanhood. Now that I am practicing I'd say marriage went from a level 1 difficulty but balanced around a 4 or 5 level satisfaction, and now is blossoming into a 8,9,10!"
