Newly married couples, how can synchronicity with our creator strengthen your union when the 'new' wears off and stress begins?
“Jehovah is my strength . . . In him my heart trusts.”—PS. 28:7.

1-2. (a) Why should newly married couples trust in Jehovah? (Psalm 37:3, 4) (b) What will we consider in this article?

ARE you about to get married, or are you newly married? If so, no doubt you look forward to enjoying life with the person you love so deeply. Of course, marriage has its challenges, and there are important decisions to make. The way you approach those challenges and decisions will affect your happiness as a couple for years to come. If you rely on Jehovah, you will make wise decisions, your marriage will grow stronger, and you will be happier. If you fail to take into account God’s thinking, you will likely encounter problems that will put a strain on your marriage, leading to unhappiness.—Read Psalm 37:3, 4.

lmwink

big n small

luv em all

the 'new' wears off for the lady

because, a, b, c, ...

"she's" waaaay too easily offended by the petty irritations of day to day human interactions

it's the big 8 which causes all the problems

assumptions, accusations, judgements, condemnation
leading to
harboring
bitterness, offense, resentment, grudges,
and then using them as weapons of manipulation, power, and control,

as soon as you assume the dude is intentionally being offensive or doing things to intentionally cause grief etc.
you make the accusations, judgements, and condemnation
followed by
harboring the bitterness, the offenses, the resentment, and the grudges

remember
- love keeps no record of wrongs -

Re: Newly married couples, how can synchronicity with our creator strengthen your union when the 'new' wears off and stress begins?
New? New is overrated. New is unaged scotch. New is that pair of boots you just bought rubbing blisters in your ankles. New is that colt that just won't quit bucking when you try to tack him up. New is a deception. A good marriage just gets better with time.

A good marriage is two people, becoming one, who genuinely both wish everyday to be better people than they were the day before.

Make a list of everything you want in a partner, and then become those things, BEFORE seeking a partner.

99% of life is the "business" of life. Loading dishes. Washing clothes. Cleaning the gutters. Planting the garden. If you can have fun with a person doing these things, if you enjoy these mundane moments more with their presence, that's a good sign.

Suffering is the only guarantee of this world. Pleasure is not.

A married couple is likely to bury parents, have to put down the dogs, lose money, have the basement flood, get a flat tire, get sick. If you can picture these moments with someone, and their presence makes them better, that's a good sign.

WHAT CHALLENGES MIGHT NEWLY MARRIED COUPLES FACE?
A newly married couple discussing their finances.

What decisions may prevent newlyweds from expanding their service to Jehovah? (See paragraphs 3-4)

3-4. What challenges might newly married couples face?

3 Some people may encourage a newly married couple to live a so-called normal life. For example, parents and other relatives might pressure a couple to start having children as soon as possible. Or well-meaning friends and family members might urge newlyweds to buy a house and fill it with nice things.

4 If not careful, a couple might make decisions that cause them to incur burdensome debts. Then, both husband and wife will likely have to work long hours in order to pay off those debts. Secular work could begin to cut into the time that should be spent in personal Bible study, family worship, and the ministry. The couple may even miss meetings to work overtime in order to earn extra money or to ensure that they can keep their jobs. As a result, they miss out on exciting opportunities to expand their service to Jehovah.

5. What do you learn from the example of Klaus and Marisa?

5 Experience shows that focusing our life on gaining material things does not lead to happiness. Consider what a couple named Klaus and Marisa learned in this regard. * At the start of their married life, they both worked full-time so that they could live comfortably. Deep down, however, they did not feel satisfied. Klaus admits: “We had more than we needed materially, but spiritually we had no goals. To be honest, life was complicated and stressful.” Perhaps you too have noticed that focusing on gaining material things has not brought you satisfaction. If so, do not be discouraged. Considering the good examples of others can help you in this regard. First, let us consider what husbands can learn from the example set by King Jehoshaphat.

LIKE KING JEHOSHAPHAT, TRUST IN JEHOVAH

6. In harmony with the counsel recorded at Proverbs 3:5, 6, how did King Jehoshaphat meet a serious challenge?

6 Husbands, do you sometimes feel overwhelmed by your responsibilities? If so, you can benefit from King Jehoshaphat’s example. As king, Jehoshaphat was responsible for the welfare of the entire nation! How did he handle that extraordinary responsibility? Jehoshaphat did what he could to protect those under his care. He fortified the cities of Judah and assembled a mighty force of more than 1,160,000 soldiers. (2 Chron. 17:12-19) Later, Jehoshaphat was confronted with a serious challenge. A large army of Ammonites, Moabites, and men of the mountainous region of Seir threatened him, his family, and his people. (2 Chron. 20:1, 2) What did Jehoshaphat do? He looked to Jehovah for help and strength. This was in harmony with the wise counsel found at Proverbs 3:5, 6. (Read.) Jehoshaphat’s humble prayer, recorded at 2 Chronicles 20:5-12, reveals just how much he trusted in his loving heavenly Father. How did Jehovah respond to Jehoshaphat’s prayer?

7. How did Jehovah respond to Jehoshaphat’s prayer?

7 Jehovah spoke to Jehoshaphat by means of a Levite named Jahaziel. Jehovah said: “Take your position, stand still, and see the salvation of Jehovah in your behalf.” (2 Chron. 20:13-17) That certainly is not the usual way to fight a battle! However, those instructions were not from a human source; they came from Jehovah. With full trust in his God, Jehoshaphat did as he was told. When he and the people went out to meet the enemy, he placed at the front of his troops, not the most skilled soldiers, but the unarmed singers. Jehovah did not let Jehoshaphat down; He defeated the enemy army.—2 Chron. 20:18-23.
