It is important, for the sake of God's Glory, and also for the future life of a husband and wife together, how the bridegroom sees his bride before, during and after their wedding ceremony. One of the causes of marriage problems today has nothing to do with the 'regular' marriage counseling sessions, it has to do with attitudes, mostly hidden attitudes, at the time of preparation for marriage. Dealing with hidden and wrong attitudes is just as important as marriage counseling!
Some people are already heading for a disastrous marriage simply because of wrong attitudes before marriage.
Some of these wrong attitudes are:
Cynicism.
Habitual criticism. (Especially when the husband, in his secret heart, unfavorably compares his wife to his mother!)
Competitiveness.
'Couldn't care less.' (Irresponsibility)
These kind of attitudes (sinful attitudes), need to be repented of and dealt with before the marriage goes ahead, not afterwards.
