SHARING AND SERVING IN MARRIAGE


Have you ever been alone as you gazed in amazement at a spectacular sunset, and wished that a loved one was there to share it with you? Or, such other spectacular sight or sound.

Sharing of thoughts and feelings bring two people together, and helps love to take root and grow. Marriage is sharing. Perhaps there is an affectionate glance across the room, a touch, a soft word, even sitting peacefully together without speaking. Every act can manifest love: helping with the other’s work when he /she is behind. Love mean sharing the work and play, the troubles and the joys, the accomplishments and the failures, the thoughts of the mind and the feelings of the heart. Share common goals, and reaching them together. This is what makes two people one; this is what makes love grow.

Serving your mate can help your love for him/her to mature. A wife commonly serves by cooking meals, making beds, cleaning the house, washing clothes, caring for household business. The husband usually serves by providing the food she cooks, the beds she makes, the house she cleans, and the clothes she washes. It is this serving, that brings happiness and nourishes love.

When we serve, we feel needed, we are filling a purpose, and this gives us self-respect and makes us content. Marriage gives both husband and wife ample opportunity to serve and to find such commitment, thus cementing their marriage more strongly in love. This will prevent the need for social work marriage family counselors in the future.
