KEYS TO FAMILY HAPPINESS

A Child Can Change a Marriage for Good

Just a pair of inexperienced skaters need time and patience to find their balance on the ice, you  need time to adjust to your new roles as parents.  Eventually, though, you will gain confidence.

Childrearing will test your commitment to your marriage and forever change your relationship with each other.  However, it will also give you  the opportunity to develop valuable qualities.  If you apply the Bible's wise advice, your experience will be like that of a father named Kenneth.  He says: "Raising children has had a good effect  on my wife and me.  We are now less self-centered, and we have become more loving and understanding."  Those sorts of changes are certainly welcome in a marriage.
