The Pressure to Perform!
When was the last time you felt so much pressure in your relationship that you were about to explode. The pressure to pay bills, feed your family, put clothes on their back, please your spouse, and seek the Lord...not a pleasant feeling huh? It's hard, but as a man it must be done.
God made us head of the household for a reason. We must do what it takes to provide even in tough times. Men, this is nothing to be ashamed of. We all have pressures we can't understand. We need shoulders to cry on and times to release our hurt and pain.
I use to think that keeping it in was the macho thing to do. Men don't cry. We don't show emotions. We must stay hard and reserved, but that's not the case. We have to learn to to talk too. Tell your spouse what's on your mind, what pressures you deal with, and get that stuff off of your chest! It will literally kill you mentally and spiritually. When was the last time you sat down and had a heart to heart talk with your spouse? I mean some real bonding time. Well, let today be different. Open up and talk to your wife. Tell her what you deal with mentally and allow God to heal both of you where the pressure is.
God Bless each of you.

Sharing Life
Marriage is about sharing your life with someone else. You share your love, your passion, your desires and your resources. You share your fears and your dreams. That is marriage.
When you have a husband or wife, you have someone with you that can say they were there when you were low and when you soared. They were there when you fell and when you got back up. You have someone who won't laugh at your pain, but who will apply healing salve, a bandaid and prayer. That is marriage.
When you join yourself to another, you gain the wealth of knowledge and experience brought in by your mate. You gain extra counsel for times when decisions must be made. Though sometimes it can feel like a thorn stuck in your flesh, more times than not, that extra voice of reason keeps you grounded. That is marriage.
Don't be afraid to share your life with your spouse. They deserve all of you. Take it from us, when you make that choice, you open a door to something that words will never accurately describe.
