Every building starts with a foundation. Whether a building will stand the test of time or not depends on the strength of the foundation. This also applies to marriage. If a marriage is not built on a solid foundation, it cannot support a happy home. The reason why many marriages around us have collapsed is just because they were contracted on a faulty foundation.
Every marriage is subjected at one time or the other to some kind of storms and rain. Whether it will fall or stand depends on the foundation. You can avoid that by making up your mind now to build your mind on the right foundation.
For any marriage to succeed there must be mutual agreement between the two people that will live together forever. You must personally be convinced and love the person you are about to marry for the foundation to be right.
To build your marriage on the right foundation, you have to build your home in accordance with the word of God. To build on the right foundation, you should abide by the command of God which says 'Don not be bound together with unbelievers'.
To build your marriage on the right foundation, you have to be sincere and open especially during courtship. Be sincere about your family, life, likes and dislikes. This will enable you make the required adjustments. There should be no pretensions.
Proper knowledge is an important foundation for a happy home. When you know the reason for going into marriage, have proper knowledge of what is expected of you when married, it reduces a lot of friction when you eventually marry.
