The Funny Thing About Marriage

Marriage is sacred and we should be careful not to denigrate it. But there is something funny about marriage.

What is funny about marriage is that being married is such a divine and godly way of life that we, the average human beings, have no business even dreaming about getting married! How do we pull off the divine??

The match may be made in heaven, but we are earthy people. How are we supposed to pull off a heavenly relationship? It’s truly astonishing!

Yet it is possible, it’s doable, and it’s necessary.

The only reason it works, is that God is there with us.
