Ghanaian Gospel musician, Amy Newman has credited humility as the cornerstone of her enduring marriage.

According to her, her husband proposed when she was 18, and despite having previous relationships, she recognized God's guidance in accepting his proposal.

Reflecting on their different backgrounds, she shared how they eventually married after a 6-month courtship, despite his high societal standing compared to hers.

Amy highlighted the significance of humility in maintaining their relationship, acknowledging that it wasn't always smooth sailing.

“I had friends. God has a way he deals with everyone. God made me understand that the partner I was with at the time was not His choice for me. So, at the age of 18,19, my husband saw me, asked for my hands in marriage and I accepted because sometimes, it is important to look at their backgrounds,” she disclosed.

She embraced the importance of apologizing during heated arguments to restore peace and joy in their home.

“My husband is an aristocrat. He had a high level in society unlike me. Looking at where I come from and the kind of person he is, I just gave in and we went to meet my parents. After meeting my husband, in 6 months time, we got married,” she indicated.

Recalling her modest financial background, she humbled herself before marriage and emphasized the vital role of humility in their lasting union.

As a devoted mother of eight, Amy chose to prioritize her children's care and put her music career on hold.

“When I started my submission, I mentioned that my financial background was not the best so going into marriage, I had to humble myself. It is all about humility. Even if I get into a heated argument with my husband, when I notice he is angry, I apologize so that we let things go. So, there is always peace and joy in the house. In marriage, there are definitely quarrels sometimes. It’s not that easy but humility is key. Looking back, I knew I have no one except God whom I look up to and that’s why it is important to be humble,” she mentioned.

She dedicated herself to being a full-time housewife until her children reached adulthood.
