Do not "Wonders"
Most everyone wonders everyone else.
We wonder if there are other people out there more sensitive, more giving, more financially secure, kinder, love-able, less angry than our spouse. We create an image of the neighbor's (friend, colleague, church) spouse who has it all together, who requires so much less maintenance than our spouse, is that true and you are one of them?
DO Not be fooled. There is no perfect person or marriage. Did you ever notice how surprised you are when you find out one of your friend is having a martial problems? or your friend tell you that he or she was abused by their spouse? You're shocked because you allowed yourself to imagine that a public is always consistence with a private life. Well, people always tried to put their best in public, isn't it? You have no idea what's really going on behind their close door.
So, if you are considering divorce, expecting to trade in for a "better" spouse, beware! cause every human being has problems. And that is why we need Jesus Christ! God is LOVE. There is no remedy for love but to love more. May our Lord increase our love to love our spouse. SO, pls work it out within your marriage. Need more love, focus and energy into your marriage.
"Wonders" will bring damages to your marriage, can you imagine both of the husband and wife "wonders" everyday as they step into office, working place, restaurant seeing the loving couple that is next to your table? "Why isn't my spouse like him/her who are so loving", "If only my spouse can be more caring like how he care for his wife", etc. and if we are not wise, soble and careful. we may even fall further to commit the followings: To covet our neighbor's spouse.
Exo 20:17 "You shall not covet your neighbor's house; you shall not covet your neighbor's wife.......................,
Jeremiah 5:8 : They were like well-fed lusty stallions; Every one neighed (sign of lust) after his neighbor's wife.
May our Lord safeguard all of His Beloved and deliver us from the temptation of the evil ones.
