Two Words that Will Save Your Marriage

8/7/2014

21 Comments

 
Picture
There are two little words that will save your marriage. You know what they are.

"I'm sorry."

The phrase, "I'm sorry," invites a healing balm between husband and wife. This balm, if applied often, will heal any wound, and bring spouses together in the heart-to-heart kind of love, and sharing, that marriage was meant to be.
Picture
It isn't easy to say "I'm sorry," to admit that you were wrong, or to admit that you said something you wish you hadn't. "I'm sorry," requires each spouse to be humble, to look deep inside themselves, and to decide that what you share as husband and wife is more important than being right.

We all know when these words need to be said, but we usually don't want to be the first one to say them. What are the reasons we avoid saying "I'm sorry?"

1. We are worried our ego will be crushed
2. We don't feel sorry
3. Our feelings are hurt, and we want to wallow in our bitterness

The next time you and your spouse intentionally or unintentionally hurt each others' feelings, step up and be the first to say "I'm sorry." The magic in these words is that ONCE you actually say them, you begin to truly FEEL them. That is the magic of forgiveness. It is a beautiful thing, and it will bring you closer to your spouse.

"I'm sorry," should OFTEN be accompanied by a long hug, a kiss, and perhaps a longer hug... :)

If your spouse apologizes to you first, make sure you echo back the fact that you are sorry too - even if you're convinced that you have nothing to be sorry about. Let it go. Love your spouse more than the disagreement. Love your spouse more than being right. Love your spouse enough to say, "We are more important than whatever caused friction between us."

"I'm sorry." Magic words. Give them a try. You can't go wrong.

URGENT AND EFFECTIVE HERBAL CURES! AND LOVE SPELL CASTER TO HELP YOU GET BACK YOUR EX LOVER VERY FAST/ CURE THAT INCURABLE DISEASES PERMANENTLY. WHATSAPP +2348164653711, Home | BUSINESS NAME (http://bit.ly/2dBFYeW)

Hi!
My husband and I have been married for about 7 years now. We were happily married with two kids, a boy and a girl. 3 months ago, I started to notice some strange behavior from him and a few weeks later I found out that my husband is seeing someone. He started coming home late from work, he hardly cared about me or the kids anymore, Sometimes he goes out and doesn't even come back home for about 2-3 days. I did all I could to rectify this problem but all to no avail. I became very worried and needed help. As I was browsing through the Internet one day, I came across a website that suggested that Dr. Godsent Yare can help solve marital problems, restore broken relationships, Curing the incurable diseases and so on. So, I felt I should give him a try and I contacted him and he did a spell for me. Two days later, my husband came back to me and apologized for the wrongs he did and promised never to do it again. Ever since then, everything has returned back to normal. My family and I are living together happily again through the help of Dr. Godsent Yare LOVE Spell.. All thanks to Dr. Godsent Yare for the incredible works you are doing to save life., If you need help of any kind, I suggest you contact him. He will not disappoint you. He's truly Godsent to Man. You can have his Email: (dryareherbalcurehome@gmail.com) or WhatsApp him (+2348164653711)

I too am going through a very rough time. I have been married for 26 years, and we just recently went through a 5 month break, and have been back together for 2 months. He had an affair while we were on this break. It is very hard to move on. We have one 15 year old daughter. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Cindy,

Our hearts ache for you, as struggles in marriage are so hard and painful. Good for you for seeking out answers and trying to keep your marriage alive! After an affair, it takes time to rebuild your trust. During your break, what did you learn about yourself and your marriage? Are you committed to making it work? How is your daughter handling things? Sometimes when we feel like hope is almost lost, it only takes something little to fan that flame of hope and to help a marriage thrive. If you have further questions or need advice, please feel free to email us at aaronandapril@nurturingmarriage.org
Best to you.
Aaron & April

i and my husband have been having a lot of problem living together, he will always not make me happy because he have fallen in love with another lady outside our relationship, i tried my best to make sure that my husband leave this woman but the more i talk to him the more he makes me feel sad, so my marriage is now leading to divorce because he no longer gives me attention. so with all this pain and agony, i decided to contact this spell caster to see if things can work out between me and my husband again. the spell caster told me what i will do to get my husband back, so he told me that he was going to make all things normal back. he did the spell on my husband and after 5 days my husband changed completely he even apologize with the way he treated me that he was not him self, i really thank this Priest Oshun he have bring back my husband back to me i want you all to contact him who are having any problem related to marriage issue and relationship problem he will solve it for you. his contact is  oshunpriest@gmail.com

I wake up everyday with a smile on my face and sing praises to this good spell caster called Dr Ero who has done me a great favor by rescuing my relationship from break up. Am from Norway I used to think that I have a perfect relationship till when my lover started coming home late and everyday he gives me different excuses then I decided to keep a close eye on him, I discovered that he was having an affair with another girl. I was heartbroken because I trusted him so much and knowing that he has a secret relationship it hurts me a lot. I thank all those who placed the contact details of Dr,Ero on the Internet and today my relationship has been restored with love and care than ever before. If you are in any kind of relationship or marriage stress I will do you a favor by dropping the contact details of Dr Ero

I am here to give thanks to Dr Ajayi for saving my relationship. I have been dating a guy for four years now, he's 39 and am 32. My boyfriend has always been so caring and loving, he has introduced me to all his family members and friends as his fiance after we got engaged a few months ago. We had already fixed our wedding date until my dreams turned to a nightmare all of a sudden. Just few weeks to our wedding my fiance changed, to the extent he said he wasn't interested in the relationship anymore simply because he was tired of me, I knew this was as a result of his ex girlfriend who has been begging him to come back all this while but he said he wasn't going to fall for her trap, but when he said it was over I knew she was the cause. All night and day I cried my heart out begging my fiance to come back because we had already fixed our wedding but he refused until i heard of Dr Ajayi the spell caster , i contacted him and he told me what to do, that he will cast some spells and my fiance will come back in 3 days after the spell. Few days later after the spell, as promised by Dr Ajayi my fiancee was at my place begging me on his kneels to forgive him saying he was sorry and do not know what came over him. All thanks to Dr Ajayi for saving my relationship , we got married a few days ago. If you are in need of a spell caster for any kind of spell work, contact the powerful spiritual man Dr Ajayi on Viber / Whatsapp : +2347084887094 or Email:drajayi1990@gmail.com

Good work deserves good recommendation, I have been trying to win the lottery for some months now but I have not been lucky enough to win a dime. In search of assistance on how I can at least be a winner of any lottery, I found out about Dr Ado who has been helpful with his winning numbers he gets through his spells to help people win the lottery. I got in touch with him to know how I can win the lottery and he told me everything I needed to know and do before the spell can be done for me and I acknowledge it. He prepared the spell for me and gave me the winning numbers to play and instructed me what to do as I played the jackpot lottery. I did as he instructed and after everything I decided to check if I was lucky enough to be among the winners, and I was. I screamed out in Joy immediately I saw my ticket numbers as the winner. I’m so grateful and appreciative to Dr Ado for helping me win. Contact him directly if you need his assistance on

I have begged him for forgiveness through text messages for him to come back home and the kids crying and miss their dad but he wont reply, I wanted him back desperately. we were in a very good couple and yet he just ignores me and get on with his life just like that, so i was looking for help after reading a post of Dr Kachi on the internet when i saw a lady name SHARRON testified that Dr Kachi cast a Pure love spell to stop divorce. and i also met with other, it was about how he brought back her Ex lover in less than 24 hours at the end of her testimony she dropped his email, I contacted Dr Kachi via email and explained my problem to Dr Kachi and he told me what went wrong with my husband and how it happen, that he will restored my marriage back, and to my greatest surprise my Ex husband came back to me, and he apologized for his mistake, and for the pain he caused me and my children.

Thanks to Priest Adu because he is great. He has done so much for me. A few months ago my wife left me for her EX. I was really so depressed. Then for some reason I was searching for divorce lawyers and to my surprise I ended up on the Priest website (Solution Temple info). I started reading about priest adu his works and testimonies and I was so encouraged to fight for my marriage through his power and work. There were times were I lost hope, thinking of giving up but he reminds me to never lose hope. I should take the chance to get my family back on track with reunion love spell. Today I can say my marriage has been restored. Am proud showing my appreciation to the priest. I recommend priest ADU to anyone who seek for help to visit his web (solutiontemple.info)
