There is “relationship”baggage or trauma that we bring into our marriages that could weigh it down. Men and women are just two broken people coming together sometimes. If we do not address our baggage with our spouses, our marriages can head to oblivion. But with God all things are possible. He created marriage, so He can resurrect it and make it alive again.
