Marriage Is Incredible

Marriage is an exceptionally incredible institution. When my daughter was seven years old, she could tell me about her boyfriend - Joseph - who happened to be her classmate. She believes Joseph will be her husband despite the fact that he is not clear in his mind about her seriousness of their friendship. That is how incredible marriage is. Both the under aged and the aged, the rich and the poor, the weak and the strong are all giving marriage a very serious thought. The astonishing high rate of divorce is not, will not and should not be a hindrance to any individual from considering and indeed jumping into it, of course at the appropriate time.

Marriage is such an awesome idea that not many consider the many and great responsibilities associated with it before getting into it. Many married couples can not remember when they sat down to plan on how to tackle the challenges they face in their marriages today but the amazing fact is that they are able to maneuver through them all. This means that in a marriage of serious, positive and committed couple, there exists some divine power which when activated, releases sufficient energy, grace and wisdom to face and manage any sort of a crisis or conflict arising.

This being the case, then there is no cause of fear of getting into marriage. Friends, just be sincere. Whether you are single, married, separated, divorced or even windowed, there exists a desire in every sound human being to be in a long lasting and fulfilling companionship. To some, this longing is on the surface and to others, it is hidden deep. To some, it is a top priority while to others; it is just an issue to consider. Whichever way, marriage is wonderful. Go for it, stay in it – whatever applies to you.

God's Plan For Your Job

Jesus told His disciples in Matthew 10 and verse 10 that a worker is worthy his dues. Your labor should never be for nothing. God wants you to enjoy the fruit of your labor. When He blesses you with a job, he expects you to enjoy maximum benefits from it. It should be a source of livelihood and fulfillment and never a burden and frustrations.

The story of Jacob and his uncle Laban in Genesis chapters 29 to 31 should inspire you to pursue the fulfillment of God's plan in your job. You should always get a salary commensurate with your work. Never allow oppression because it is not the will of God for you. When you negotiate with your employer, it should always be clear what your responsibilities are and the amount of pay.

While at your job, God expects you to perform excellently, keeping time and set deadlines. You should be reliable and predictable. This is one of the ways to accumulate confidence to demand what is rightfully yours. God desires that you be counted as one of the faithful employees at your place of work. Both your employer and colleagues should testify of your honesty and diligence at work.

Your employer and colleagues on the other hand should accord you sufficient respect and support so as to perform well. God's will is that you get paid your salary and other benefits in full and on time. His plan is that you progress in your job to get promotions and salary increment accordingly. Your working environment should be friendly, peaceful and ideal for the nature for your duties and responsibilities.
