Jollyblogger highlights why Christian marriage isnt always a bed of roses: "So, here's the picture - the man expects a woman who looks like a model, cooks like Julia Child, makes money like Martha Stewart (ooh - bad example!), and submits like Sarah, who called her husband 'lord.' The woman doesn't ask much, she just wants to be married to Jesus. "

But of course, if we can get over our 'Great Expectations' marriage remains a gift from God. I for one wouldnt have it any other way.
