Divorce: How to preserve the strength of your marriage?
In an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN), Pastor Moses, expressed concern over the alarming increase in the divorce rate among young couples. According to him, many couples today consider divorce as the ultimate solution, even for simple disagreements.
Pastor Moses urges couples to learn to resolve their problems through dialogue and endurance rather than automatically resorting to divorce. “There is no perfect marriage,” he says. “Couples should stop rushing to court to file for divorce.”
Indeed, Pastor Moses believes that most of the reasons given by couples to justify their request for divorce are often frivolous and without real basis. According to him, simple misunderstandings can be resolved amicably between spouses, thereby saving their marriage.
Pastor Moses advises couples to make the effort to get to know their partner in order to solidify the bond between them. He also stresses that it is important for Nigerians not to blindly copy the Western way of life because European and African cultures are different.
Finally, he warns of the devastating consequences that divorce can have on the lives of children, who are often the first to suffer.
In conclusion, Pastor Moses reminds us of the importance of cultivating patience, dialogue and endurance within marriage. It invites us to recognize that no one is perfect and that problems can be resolved if spouses demonstrate understanding and compromise. Saving your marriage therefore requires personal investment and a desire to preserve family unity.
