You are right Amie, we can’t just leave it at “Marriage is hard work” becuase it goes so far beyond that. I think the sentiment is that a healthy relationship does not just happen. We need to put effort in to nuture and grow our love for one another. But it is also right to say “Marriage makes a hard life easier”. Our cooperation together enables us to deal with the struggles of life more effectively.

“Marriage is hard work” is a meme that destroys a lot of good relationships and encourages a lot of people to stay in horrible and damaging ones. Marriage is not hard. Life is hard. A healthy marriage makes it easier.

So true akin….marriage is hard work and when the tough times come we need to be willing to put as much work into it as we put into other things in our lives. Having made that commitment over 36 years ago to my husband I can honestly say that it hasn’t always been easy but it is definitely worth it.

I appreciate this. I see all these 4 demons you listed scattering marriages of believers and unbelievers in our world. Here, almost every couple want hitch free marriage without any determination to work it out. Thank you
