Relationship Friday: Marital Investment
It is a fundamental law of nature that when the conditions are right, what you sow, you will reap. Actions and reactions are always equal and opposite. Whatever we give, we receive. We are constantly sowing by reason of our words, actions, inactions, reactions and attitudes. We can't even control if we sow or not, what we do or don't do, what we say or don't say eventually brings a harvest. It is fundamental and spiritual to life.
We can only control what we sow and what we don't sow. We can be conscious about what goes out of us. We can be deliberate about what we permit to fester in our minds and what we permit to escape our thoughts into our vocal system and into our activities. In so doing, we automatically create a response that brings us a commensurate harvest.
The law is drawn from the nature of God as a judge, who judges all things without respect of persons. It controls economies, it controls life. What you invest within a supportive environment must definitely bring you a harvest.
The same is true about marriage. It does not just happen that a marriage comes out perfectly. It must take advantage of the supportive environmental system God has put in place to support its blossoming to bring success.
Not every soil, amount of rain and sunshine supports every plant for a good harvest. It takes studies of the laws and the principles that support a seed, to know what it takes for it to bring forth an harvest.
The seed may be good, with great potential to bring forth desired results but the farmer must understand what specific requirements are required for that seed to bring forth its possible potential.
Marriage as a whole has its requirements for success, and each marriage also has its specific requirements to succeed. These, we have to discover and apply to get the best possible outcome.
You can't be feeding an animal with what it's system doesn't use and expect it to respond in proper growth and development. The same with marriage.
We must apply desire, diligence, determination and discipline in our quest for a good marriage and the subsequent home. We can't afford to throw garbage into our marriages and expect it to return to us with a beautiful edifice. It won't work.
Our thoughts, words, actions, inactions, attitudes and reactions must be tailor-made to bring out the exact desire we have for our homes.
Investment requires knowledge as earlier mentioned, and knowledge comes through both revelation and experience. The good thing about knowledge is that it does not have to be you who got the revelation or the experience before you gain expertise in practicing it. If you can gain access and use it, so long it's the truth, it'll work for you.
Investment, therefore starts and continues with gaining relevant and adequate knowledge. Don't pretend you know it all. Our challenges are mostly those areas where we lack knowledge, which life's tests have revealed for us to fix with knowledge and wisdom.
