Luke 20:34-35 - "The people of this age marry and are given in marriage. But those who are considered worthy of taking part in the age to come and in the resurrection from the dead will neither marry nor be given in marriage..."
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Marriage is a sacred vow. Too bad, some of us would just celebrate the wedding day and not the marriage. Wedding day is just a day of fun and celebration. Marriage is a lifelong, unbreakable union between man and a woman.
And since God is the One Who decisively makes every marriage, only God has the right to break a marriage. And He only does this by death - "till death do us part". And in Heaven, everyone is married only to God, as everyone is like an angel, all children of God, all children of the resurrection.
God's definition of marriage is clear. ONE MAN, ONE WOMAN, UNITED FOR LIFE IN GOD. It always takes three to make a marriage works.
It is not without fear that we take this step but should be responsible enough. And by God's help, we will also learn to love and submit, and experience the wonderful union of marriage, and share it with our children.
Rekindle your love for your spouse whom God has given to you to be your partner for life, for richer and for poorer, for better or worse, in sickness and in health - may the Lord our God blesses our marriage forever and ever.
+ Let us pray: Almighty Father, bless the family. Bless the union of marriage of every wives and husbands. May they continue to bring back to You their married life and be blessed in You. For those who have hardened their hearts, may they realize their limitations and repent back to You. You have joined men and women from a family dedicated to You, and may no one separate this union. Amen +
