“Why is marriage so hard?” That is a question I often hear from struggling couples.
What happened? All of that love, all the connection, seems to disappear, to be replaced with struggle and strife.
At the start, it seemed so easy. You wanted to be together, to spend your life together. Then… something shifted. Things got tough.
Does that mean that the marriage was wrong, that you married the wrong person?
Or is there something else going on?
There are several challenges that arise in any marriage. They are challenges, not insurmountable obstacles. They prove that “being in love” is not enough to get you through life.
You CAN make it through the struggle. And no, the struggle does NOT mean the marriage is headed for failure or broken. There IS a place for renewal and connection.
Listen below for more on how to get past the struggle.
