If you are married and decide to forgive your spouse for infidelity, lies, mistreatment, etc...you don't owe anyone an explanation. If you decide to honor your vows when you said, "for better or for worse," (my husband and I always say that you never know what the "worse" will be but it's coming to challenge your promise); then you don't have to justify yourself. Would it make some people more comfortable to hear your reasoning? Probably so...but that decision is totally up to you.
However, if you make the choice to display the unconditional, undying, unwavering and redemptive love of Christ to the person you told God you would love and honor until the end of time...that does not need an explanation. If God could create the world from nothing, prevent the earth from spinning out of control, maintain the sun at a distance that is close enough to support life, yet far enough away not to destroy it; form man from the dust of the earth, cause the ocean to touch land but never overtake the shore, put the seasons on a consistent cycle of repeat, allow animals to maintain the circle of life, fashion the body in such a way that if it's cut it will attempt to heal itself and love you and me enough, not to make us love Him back, but rather gives us the choice to choose Him with our whole heart...then surely He can heal your marriage and make it stronger than ever before.
