Females Perspective
Introduction
A lot of women have fantasies about their dream wedding very early on in life. It only increases as they buy into the images that Hollywood spread through movies, music, and even books. Though it’s nice to have a dream wedding, what about a dream marriage. What happens after you wear the expensive dress, you have the beautiful ceremony, you have the beautiful reception and you cut the expensive cake? Most women don’t dream that far and when reality hits them, they are not prepared for the rude awakening.
This book is not a guide on how to catch
a man. This book is about preparing yourself mentally and spiritually for the union deemed holy by God. God was the very first officiator for the very first wedding (Adam and Eve). If He did not think it was a holy union, He would not have taken part in it. There are a lot of women who have unrealistic views about marriage. So, this is the eye-opening truth about what marriage truly is and what may occur.
If you know what you are getting into, it is easier to deal with the problems you may encounter. But, when everything is a complete surprise it makes it harder to deal with.
Men may also read about the woman’s role in a marriage to better understand his future
