Why do you want to get married?

9/16/2011

Have you ever really thought about it? Why do want to be a wife? Is it so people will stop asking you that same ole question so........."Girl, when are you getting married?"
Or do you just want to have a family?
Or are you excited about the wedding day and can't wait to walk down the aisle in your v-neck halted top gown?
No one ever says I want to get married to "put up with hubby's attitude when he's had a rough day."
Or I want to get married to pray and fast for our spiritual growth.
Or I want to get married to learn how to put someone else's needs
before my own.
So why do you want to become a wife?
Be real with yourself. This is the time to deal with the reality of what it means to be a wife. My married sisters, please share your experience and wisdom too.

Good blog entry. It's definitely something to reflect on (wife vs. bride). Be sure to plan for a marriage and not for a wedding. Though in our culture, it is hard to maintain the right focus! You just have to work hard and educate yourself- read, talk to others, and most importantly, PRAY!

Tandy, that's a great point and so true. We spend so much time planning the wedding, and very little preparation on how to be a wife.
