Well...so do I! I know that I'm the blogger and should have something to share so here it goes. PRAY. And if you are not a Christian, then most certainly pray even harder because the uncertainty of your eternal life must be causing you extreme unrest. But back to marriage. Although it is like walking a bed of hot coals sometimes, realize that your spouse's unresolved hurt, could be causing him/her to hurt you. (not physically) Things in the past, feelings of failure, childhood terrors, strained familial relations and simply the stress of everyday life can all be things contributing to unresolved hurt in your spouse. So pray for their strenghth, peace and healing. Pray tha t the Lord allows you to show him/her the same grace and mercy that He shows us.
Please, share some of your marriage.secrets!

Yes. Yes. and Yes. Have been there on both the receiving and giving end. You mentioned prayer. I've posted about this on my blog and a few people commented that "prayer" is not enough. Well, sometimes what we "do" is not enough, so prayer is the miracle worker we need. many times I've prayed to God, "Dear God, you know that I physically want to hurt him right now, with my iron frying pan....please heal our marriage" "God, You know I have no idea what is going on right now. I have no idea what my husband is thinking, why he is treating me this way. Please keep us together. Bind us together, even despite our not understanding each other."
