i have a void in me that my husband cannot fill -maria shriver

i was watching TMZ the other day and they quoted Maria Shriver to have said "i have a void in me that my husband can never ever fill..."

yes, Miss Maria, you are right. Mr. Terminator can never fill that void you have in your life. and neither will your kids, the whole Kennedy clan, or the whole of America who shows you sympathy right now fill that void you have in your life.

but i know of a man who can.

his name is JESUS.

 there is a mistake that most women commit when they get married. THEY EXPECT THEIR HUSBANDS TO FILL UP THE VOID THEY HAVE IN THEM. and most of the time, THEY GET DISAPPOINTED. then most of the time, the marriage ends in separation.

if we only enter marriage to have someone fill us up, then we should be prepared to crash and burn. no man, no matter how much he loves you, can ever fill you up.

both persons entering marriage should first be complete in mind, soul, and spirit before they say "I do". they should know first their real worth and that they should be complete in God first before they enter the most challenging chapter of their lives - MARRIAGE.

i know of a couple who got married just because they want to leave their families already. they suffer too much inside their own families that they opted to tie the knot so they can escape. years after, their marriage started to fall apart. why? because the same things that was happening in their own families where the same things that were happening within their marriage. they just wanted to escape, but the past came running after them. it's sad to see couples separate just because they never really built a strong foundation but it's sadder to see couples separate because they were married with the wrong intentions.

i was rereading the book Captivating while my boyfriend, Jeremy, was rereading the book Wild at Heart. those two books are related. written by the same author but for different purposes. the book Cpativating is for women, while the book Wild at Heart is for men. one day, we got talking about the book. or should I say, he shared a truth he learned from the book. He said it amazes him how God works in the lives of both men and women and with their hearts. A man's heart is one half of a puzzle while a woman's heart is the other half. BUT, those two hearts should be first complete so that they can complete the heart they were created to complete. Whose heart is it? God's. A man's complete heart plus a woman's complete heart, when they were joined as one is God's heart. that's how He created it to be. that is why marriages should be celebrated because it is God's heart reigning in them.
