| What kind of relationship should a Marriage be? |

| |
I've been married to the same great man for 17 years. Coming up on our 19th year Dec. 29th. I still have much respect for my husband, he is my best friend. I know he was a Gift from God. A gift that I am truly Thankful for.
2:18 Then the LORD God said, "It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him a helper fit for him." 4:9 Two are better than one, because they have a good reward for their toil. 4:10 For if they fall, one will lift up his fellow; but woe to him who is alone when he falls and has not another to lift him up. 19:4 And he answered and said, Have ye not read, that he who made `them' from the beginning made them male and female, 19:5 and said, For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife; and the two shall become one flesh?
19:6 So they are no longer two but one flesh. What therefore God has joined together, let not man put asunder." 11:3 But I want you to understand that the head of every man is Christ, the head of a woman is her husband, and the head of Christ is God. These readings say it all for me! Marriage at its best is a relationship so close and intimate that the two of us work together as one. It involves mutual trust, mutual support, mutual defense, mutual comfort, mutual vulnerability, and mutual responsibility. Blessings~ |
