YOUR MARRIAGE AND YOUR MOBILE PHONE

Scripture:
‘MARRIAGE IS HONOURABLE’
(HEBREWS 13: 4A)

WHEN YOU BUY A MOBILE PHONE, IT INSTANTLY BECOMES your “closest” possession. Your shoes, dresses, cars, name it: none of them would enjoy the kind of closeness and intimacy your phone would enjoy with you. If people named nonliving possessions, you would have given it a name on the day you purchased it.

You don’t only cherish your mobile phone but can’t endure it staying “THIRSTY”. No. As soon as it indicates that it’s “thirsty” for battery power, you’ll find your battery charger and get about having it charged. You don’t postpone that because you know that without battery power, your device is incapable of functioning. So, you always ensure that it has top battery power.

And when your “darling” phone is “HUNGRY”, you do all you can to feed it even when it’s just not convenient. If somehow you can’t afford the cash to buy it’s Food(Airtime), you’ll opt for typing the “Borrow Code” to borrow it’s food rather than allowing your device to stay hungry.

How about protection? Your device enjoys super protection because you automatically became it’s Chief Security Officer from “day one”! You go every where with it including the bathroom and the restroom. Even when it’s already old, you don’t make the mistake of keeping it carelessly because it could be stollen. Infact, the older it is, the more precious it becomes because of the huge load of information and personal secrets it carries. It’s your connection to the outside world and to thousands of important people, both far and near.

From all we’ve said, you constantly do the following for your phone without waiting to be told or reminded:

1. YOU’RE CLOSE AND INTIMATE WITH IT
2. FEED IT FAITHFULLY
3. YOU GIVE ATTENTION TO “WATERING” IT
4. YOU DILIGENTLY PROTECT IT

Do you know that your Spouse is thousands of times more valuable than your man-made Mobile Phones?

(1) CLOSENESS AND INTIMACY. The manufacturers of your phone no where instruct you to keep the device close to yourself. But since you know that if it’s far, you’d miss calls, you keep it very close to yourself.

But in the case of your Spouse, you’re commanded by God to CLEAVE to them and you’re also told that you are ONE FLESH.
Yet, very many Spouses don’t see the need to be very close and intimate with their Partner. And they wonder why they don’t understand each other.

Sir/Ma, it’s not enough that you are married. You need to be PRACTICALLY close and intimate with your Spouse to know them well and to mutually understand one another. The more you know and understand one another, the more harmony and peace you’ll enjoy in your marriage.

(2) FEEDING
As soon as your mobile phone indicates it’s “HUNGER” for Airtime, you don’t waste time before attending to it. Even if you don’t have the money, you type the “Borrow Code” and borrow.

Similarly, you must be concerned about the HUNGERS of your Spouse. Their hunger for your attention, empathy, compassion, care, rest, love, physical food, etc. should stir your heart to action. Just as you don’t delay to get Airtime for your phone, so also should you not delay to satisfy the NEEDS of your husband or wife.

(3) “WATERING” YOUR SPOUSE
As you quickly attend to your Mobile Phone’s “THIRST” for battery power once it shows the sign of “Battery Low” so also should you meet your Spouse’s thirst for sexual intimacy.

When your battery power is low, you don’t drag your feet to attend to it’s need. Neither are you afraid or ashamed of what people will say. Infact, none of such thoughts come into your mind. You simply pick up your battery charger and plug it into the electricity source and your phone battery starts charging.

Similarly, when your Mate indicates that they’re desirous of Sex, you are to promptly attend to them.

The truth is that Sexual Intimacy is the WATER of the Married Life and the Marriage World. The Bible says:

“Drink waters out of thine own cistern, and running waters out of thine own well.”(Proverbs 5: 15)
So, as soon as your husband or wife shows desire for sexual intimacy, it means that “marital thirst” has started and you must not delay to meet it.

(4) PROTECTION
You protect your phone without being told. At home, you don’t allow your kids touch it let alone carry it about. Outside the home, you guard it jealousy. When at a function, you hold it tight. When you travel for a burial, you’re even more careful as carelessness may leave you returning to the city without a phone.

If you protect a nonliving thing so jealously, how much more your Spouse who’s your Covenant Partner, the Flesh of your Flesh and the Bone of your Bones? There’s great need to guard your Spouse lovingly, tenderly and jealously. If you don’t, you could lose them. The devil is still in the business of STEALING!

In conclusion,
your Mobile phone is useful to you in many ways including giving you connection to thousands of people, the Internet and so much more.

Your Spouse gives you even more. Yes, so much more! Whether you know it or not, your Spouse is the greatest nourisher of your life and your biggest singular life support system. They connect you to God with their prayers and intercessions. Your life receives the sunshine of joy and the radiance of affection, passion and romance through them. They bring the echoes of laughter, cheer and pure delight into your heart, life and home. For this and very many more reasons, you ought to protect your Spouse more than anything else.

Protect your Mate because they’re a strong Pillar in your Life. Protect them for the sake of their present roles in the life of your children and even more importantly for the sake of the roles they have to play in their lives in the future.

And part of your protecting them is to lovingly speak out and caution them when you strongly sense that they’re taking a wrong step or decision. Speak out, don’t be silent; for a stitch in time saves nine!
