In order to have a “Blessed” Marriage your first priority should be to have the ‘Prince of Peace’ in your marriage. Jesus is the Prince of Peace!
“Blessed” is being exceedingly glad while having a divine aid or protection. It is being consecrated, sacred, holy, sanctified; worthy of adoration, reverence or worship. In order for you to have this ‘attitude’ of being Blessed, there are some ‘Beatitudes’ to be followed.
“No man succeeds without a good woman behind him. Wife or mother, if it is both, he is twice blessed indeed.”–Godfrey Winn
“Blessed are the hearts that can bend; they shall never be broken.”–Albert Camus
Marriages should be Blessed and Highly Favored.

Thank you Carolyn. Have a Blessed evening.
Thank you all for your great feedback and shares. Susan most of today's society is afraid of any kind of commitment. Commitment is a challenge but using some guidelines will help to keep the marriage fresh and help break down the divorce rate. God still gives to us the gift of choice. We can choose to follow, or do as we please.
Marriage requires Compromise on both sides...
Angela,
Wonderful post and rules to follow. Sadly in today's throw-away world it seems that couples are more likely to throw away what they might have had rather than work on it.
Although I will admit to you and the world that through the years we didn't follow the list up there as much as we should. Yet God saved us anyway :) The closes thing I can figure out is that one, we loved each other and then just let God handle all the other things because we both know that only God can.
Thanks Angela!
You are a wise lady Angela. So nice to know you and this is great information for married couples to know. Shared via Syndication Automation and my Facebook group.
