Wonderful post And the way we should all strive to live. God has always been a part of my life. I gave myself over to Christ years ago. I will have been married for almost 46 years.

My hubby and I are not perfect and we still have our arguments (mostly over petty things) but we still are together in spite of all we have been through. Sometimes I think my hubby just likes to argue for arguments sake. No one will ever know the struggles some couples go through but we have stuck through it all.

The only advice I can give you for a long marriage is to make sure you trust the person you marry. We were together for 5 years before we actually got married. Take the time to get to know the person you want to marry and make sure you can TRUST THEM and give them all your trust, too.

Everything else requires a little give and take. Keep your sense of humor. It will come a long way in ironing out those wrinkles. And always be respectful even when you fight.
