We must remember that marriage was God's idea when He created the beginning of the world with the first man & first woman, Adam & Eve.
Remember that God is love & it was He who created you and the Bible says that God is love. He created you to love & be loved. He is the one that caused you & your spouse to meet & fall in love & get married. It is He at the center of your marriage that will help you to affair proof it. Living by His commands and His Word. Loving Him with your heart, soul, mind and strength is the first step.

Love your neighbor as yourself is the next step. Let's say your neighbor here is your spouse. Put your spouse in front your self. See to it that you are meeting your spouses needs. If you are not sure of their need, ASK them. Communication is such a powerful thing in a marriage. Talking to one another! In this busy world we live in & all of our hectic schedules we must make time to talk. Eye to eye, face to face. Research has shown that the #1 cause for divorce is the couple has simply drifted apart. Do not let this happen! Talk to each other about their needs and yours. An excellent way to do so is to sit face to face with your hand on your spouses heart, chest and theirs on yours and take turns opening up.

Also praying together is another great way to gain intimacy with God & with your spouse. Remember the reasons why you fell in love and got married in the first place. Do not dwell on the things that you do not like about them, dwell on the things you do like & love. Find the good in them & think about those things. Compliment your spouse, be their greatest cheerleader! In life so many times we have many negative things happen, in our workplace, etc. so make your home a haven of peace. A place where your spouse is built up by you! Spend time doing things together. Do not confide in a person of the opposite sex. Confide in your spouse. Share your hopes & dreams, & goals. As well as your fears. Remember to ask your Creator for His help. He is willing & able, because He loves you & your spouse and wants to bless your marriage, family, & life!
