The way the world is today, one cannot afford to enter into a loveless marriage.  There are so many wicked people out there.  One has to be sure of the person that you are marrying.  Love is very important in a marriage.  Love is what holds a marriage together.  You cannot say you will learn to love the person.  Either you love him/her or not.  From the beginning there must be a spark of attraction, other wise you can forget all about it.  Marriages last longer when people love each other.  Besides love there must be respect and trust.  Without trust  your marriage has already failed.  God intended for us to be happy and He first loved us so we must love someone when we marry them.  By not doing this we go against God's will.  Couples must love each other unconditionally and when they have done something wrong to each other, mustn't want to buy their love and forgiveness.  Be honest and apologize to each other.  Admit that you were wrong.  It says a lot about a person when they can admit they were wrong.  Show your love always to each other.  Actions speak louder than words.  Try to compromise in any given situation.

Do not be selfish, a marriage works both ways.  When you love your partner, you know him/her so it is not difficult to get on with them.  You understand each other, so your marriage will succeed.  Always listen to each other and  make decisions together.  When you love each other, your children learn from your example.  They are then also happy and contented.  It teaches your children the principles of love and helps them to make the right decisions when choosing a partner later in their life.  It is very important to always set a good example for your children. 

Be patient with each other and do not fight or become violent with each other.  Always show your love to each other and your children.  Remember people have feelings so respect them and live according to how God wants you to live. Love can conquer anything.  Love is a very powerful thing, so use it accordingly.  Love is what brings two special people together. Live as if there is no tomorrow.  Put everything possible into your marriage in order for it to succeed.
