Building Productive Relationships: Understanding the Spiritual Journey Towards a Healthy Marriage Sara Jackson

On a cold night living in a Chicago Suburban town (Hanover Park, IL) left all alone as a widow woman I decided to write this book on building productive relationships, After being married to a wonderful man, I wanted to share the happiness on building successful relationships. When building a relationship one should get to know the personality of a potential spouse to determine whether or not you can spend the rest of your life with someone. Sometimes as women, we tend to project characteristics upon a person that the person does not necessarily possess. Don't create something in a person that isn't there. Engaging in a relationship prematurely will only create heartaches. When waiting on God you will receive his best. As a Pastor I waited on God, my husband and I dated for several years. We both knew that God had ordained our relationship. He was my precious jewel. We were both made in the image of God, neither my husband nor I was made in the image of God more than the other, God was unique in his making when he made man. Man gave life to woman because of the rib that was taken from his side, and woman gives life to the world, because one of her greatest contributions is to be fruitful, multiply and replenish the earth. We are both variable to each other. How unique! We are bone of man bone and flesh of his flesh. And for this cause man shall leave his father and mother and cleave to his wife.
