Frequently Asked Questions
Is it wrong to feel unhappy in marriage?+
No, it's normal to experience ups and downs in marriage. In 1 Peter 3:1-6, wives are encouraged to 'not so much at the outward appearance, but rather the discreetness of the heart'. This means it's okay to feel uncertain, but focus on trusting God and praying for guidance.
What if my marriage lacks the love I was expecting?+
True love (agape) is a selfless, sacrificial love that imitates God's love. In 1 Corinthians 13:4-7, this kind of love is described as patient, kind, and not self-seeking. Rather than focusing on what's lacking, pray for this kind of love to grow in your relationship.
How can I pray for God to guide me in my marriage?+
You can pray for wisdom and guidance, asking God to 'lead you in a straight path' (Psalm 5:8) and to 'show you which path to take' (Proverbs 16:9). This can be a turning point in trusting God for your marriage.
