In a book I was reading recently about the history of marriage and love, I noted that the Puritans had what seemed to be a very healthy outlook on the marital commitment.  The Puritans looked at marriage as an extremely blessed event that gave marital partners an opportunity to not only love, but also to forgive.  In light of the ever-climbing divorce numbers, perhaps forgiveness is a concept that today’s modern marriages may need to consider readapting.
