Last weekend we attended a wedding. wearing a magnificent dress of silk and brocade, the radiant bride floated down the hall, accompanied by the sound of trumpets, and the organ, to meet her boyfriend at the altar. the candles shone with trembling light, while the bride and groom, looking into each other's eyes, promised to love each other forever.
As in any wedding, my heart was touched by the commitment and love of the couple. but I must confess that after the wedding songs were sung, the vows were pronounced, the cake of four levels was eaten, and the couple was thrown a shower of rose petals before they escaped in a rented lemosina, passed by my mene the question WILL IT BE THAT TRULY KNOW WHAT ARE GOING ON? In fact, most of us do not know what he is getting into, otherwise NO one would say: "YES, I ACCEPT!" Although marriage can provide satisfactions, it is also work ----- sometimes more work than we would have imagined.
When two people decide to become "one", in reality a new identity is formed. their union is something that must satisfy them deeply, and also serve the purposes of God. However, because they are imperfect people in a fallen world, this new entity will face incredible challenges, both inside and outside the relationship. as a couple he has to handle the weaknesses and differences of each one, his sinful nature as a fighter against their union. selfishness, the hurts of childhood or resentments, can oppose your best efforts to become one.
