—Genesis 2:18-25

Marriage is a profound covenant relationship. I have heard expressions like, “Marriage is a 50/50 proposition.” It is actually better said, “Marriage is a 100/100 proposition.” When the Lord shows you who he wants you to spend the rest of your life with, you are in a sense cutting some of the ties with your parents and joining your entire being with your spouse. This mysterious joining includes the body, mind, emotions and soul. Marriage is unlike any other union in that we pledge before God our unconditional commitment to the other person.
