“Results will take as long as they take.” ©Jane Powell – Meditations for Women
Marriage is hard work and some days are harder than others. You will get discouraged but don’t throw in the towel. I am here to tell you DON’T GIVE UP ON YOUR MARRIAGE!
God never told us that every day would be sunny! If you entered marriage thinking that you would laugh and smile with your spouse every day, I hate to tell you, which you probably already know, every day will not be SUNNY. Just know you and your marriage is not the only one that goes thru cloudy days.

You should learn something about your spouse every day. No matter how long you have been married, you are still learning, growing, changing and loving.
[Tweet “Marriage is about learning, growing, changing and loving DAILY! “]
So give yourself, your spouse, and your marriage the freedom to have cloudy days. Just know that the cloudy days does not mean that your marriage is doomed. It just means that you guys need to regroup, communicate honestly, and devise a plan not to have [this] cloudy day again.
The key is DON’T GIVE UP on your marriage!

Laughter really does get you through the day. I can attest to that! Great advice!

I love this, giving up should never be an option. People take the easy way out sometimes only to find that it really was the hard way out. Not living up to the dedication “Giving Up” you made to your spouse causes so many problems. But when there is a problem like you mentioned above and you work through it the benefits are limitless when it comes to making up, if you catch my drift. :0) You are doing a marvelous job, keep it up!
