Today's topic: Why do you feel marriage is part of God’s marvelous design? What have you discovered that you want to shout from the rooftops? Or, tell us how you handled a conflict that turned out to be unexpected blessing in your relationship. Give us the real skinny about marriage as God envisions it.
God knew what He was doing when He created marriage as part of his marvelous design. In Genesis we read how He gave Adam a helper when he created Eve. This causes me to look at my own marriage and see how my husband and I both are helpers to each other. I've noticed many times throughout our married life the blessing it is to have my husband help me. There are times I just need his help with physical tasks around the house as well as emotional support in my time of stress or sadness. Other times I can help him both physically and emotionally. I think God knew we'd need this lasting, unconditional support and gave us each other as part of His plan. It is nice to have listening ears and comforting arms to go to on the hard days as well as to rejoice with on the happy days!
