Marriage is Not Part of My Problem…Mike Godson

Nollywood actor, Mike Godson, was the Best Man to fellow actor's wedding, Nosa Rex, which took place over the weekend but it seems he had gone back to ponder on reasons why people fall in love.

Mike while reflecting on the essence of marriage, advised people to get married for the right reasons and should take time to understand their partners before they eventually make the decision of accepting to marry each other.

He stated that a lot of marriages fail these days because people marry for the wrong reasons pointing that he has lots of challenges but marriage was not part of it as he hopes to settle down soon.

“I will define marriage as an institution that bonds a man and a woman together for the rest of their lives. Marriage can also be defined as a strong union accepted to be shared by a man and a woman. These are the few definition of marriage in my own words. Life is all about love, and love is the true meaning of life. Sometimes people fall in love for the wrong reasons. And most times, for the right reasons.

“When you fall in love for the wrong reasons, the consequences are usually very hurtful! But when you fall in love for the right reasons, your relationship with your partner will be the sweetest thing in the world. Falling in love for the right reasons includes taking your time to study your partner. Making sure you can tolerate his or her bad sides. Accessing yourselves to a conclusion that you are on the same page about the future. Not getting married without a future plan, because.”

“The bible says a man who cannot provide for his family, Is worst than an infidel. Marriage is the sweetest thing in the world; marriage can also be your worst nightmare. Marriage demands 100 percent maturity. Single people are expected to pray and ask God for Devine direction, when it comes to choosing a lifetime partner. Because God's time is always the best. If we don't seek Gods permission and help before choosing a partner, we will all fall out of our marriages just the way we fell into it. I would love to get married some day, because the bible says a man who finds a wife finds a good thing and obtains favour from God. And as much as I want that favour, I actually have 99 problems right now and marriage is not one of them. May God bless us with wisdom.”
