Someone (Pentecostal) posted saying staying in a marriage because you love them is not worth it if you're unhappy.
My reponse......That's the world's philosophy but anti Biblical. Bro Terry Shock (well known in Pentecost) once said some very wise words... "it's not about being happy. It's about being holy!"
Marriage is not as they portray in love novels and romance movies. Marriage is work. A person can't bail out just because they're not happy or don't feel their spouse is their best friend. There's only one Biblical cause for leaving a spouse....marital unfaithfulness. We need to stick with and teach what the Word says.

I try to admonish ladies to stop reading love novels and watching romance movies. They usually lead to unrealistic expectations and even disgruntledness in marriage because their husband is not living up to the suave debonair charmer they see portrayed in these. Life is real and marriage will be work.
