Does love work in Marriage?

Until very recently,I have been a great fan of love for marriage or nothing else.I slept and woke up with the thought of getting married to a man I truly loved.Yes,I was conscious of the fact that he should love me too,but I guess I was more interested in my love for him rather than his for me.Sick?Yes,now I know.The sad thing is that there are many women like that,who just want to be married for nothing else but love! Now don't get me wrong,I am still an advocate of love for relationships.Love is a beautiful thing and anyone who finds it, is blessed.Believe me,its been proven that love has been more a burden than a strength in marriage.Think of when the money is no longer flowing in,when he becomes promiscuous,when she begins to nag,when the kids delay in coming,when in laws become a pain in the neck and all that...

Benny Hinn remarries wife,Suzanne

The 60-year-old evangelist has remarried his ex-wife Suzanne in Orlando Florida. The wedding took place on the 3rd of March, 2013 in the company of top ministers of God like Roy Harthern (Suzanne’s dad), Reinhard Bonnke and Jay Hartford. The officiating ministers called their wedding a miracle after over two years of separation between them. According to Reinhard Bonnke, the miracle of this remarriage was even greater than the miracle of any marriage. Benny Hinn said nothing until the end of the ceremony when he prayed over his wife Suzanne as the visiting men of God crowded around. Benny Hinn and Suzanne’ remarriage ceremony was a traditional one. It lasted for about 2 hours. Their children and their spouses were their parents’ attendants. The Hinns have 4 children and four grandchildren. This is heart warming...Praise God.
