Marriage

I did a wedding at Vinings Lake this weekend and I am reminded again about the sanctity of marriage. This is truly a convenant between a man and a woman to each other - in the eyes of God and those present.

Marriage is definitely a process - it is "always becoming and never arriving" - but isn't much of life like that?

If we allow this relationship to be under the Lordship of Jesus (both personally and together) it can be a very beautiful thing - because it allows us to grow and learn from one another and become a better person - and it also allows us to give the world a picture or "view" of Jesus and the Church (according to Ephesians 5).

This is a challenge to us because we need to give the world every reason to believe in a God that loves us and is committed to us - no matter what we do...and Men, we are the ones that are called to represent Jesus!

What a responsibility - what a privilege.
