Marriage: Accepting oneself?

Since marriage involves such a close relationship between two people, feelings of inferiority can create serious obstacles and hinder the development of love. A person needs to realize that he was created by God and his dignity is based on the image of God. It is not intended that he excel in every area in which other persons succeed.

He can excel only in those areas for which God has equipped him. Each person is a unique individual with a specific, divinely appointed purpose. He should not attempt to imitate others nor mope when others are promoted in economic or social structures.

God has an important task for each, and no one else can do that task quite as well as the one who has been designed for it.

The real solution to inferiority is FAITH. Believing that God made each person for a specific purpose. A person should thank God daily for what he is. Recognizing that one's abilities come from God excludes pride and an attitude of superiority.

A good relationship in marriage depends on each partner's accepting himself as he is and accepting his companion for what he is or she is. Accepting one another requires adjustments,.but these adjustments are not possible if one or both will not cooperate in the marriage development for maturity.

Any thought?

You are right. Nobody is perfect. Each person has his own flaws and imperfections. It's just a matter of understanding, respect and compromise.
