Gift of Marriage
By: Jennifer Waddle In the day that God created man, He made him in the likeness of God. He created them male and female, and blessed them and called them Mankind in the day they were created. (Genesis 5:1-2) There is no guesswork as to when or how marriage originated. It didn't evolve over time. It wasn't a ceremonial ritual that people invented. It wasn't even a romantic gesture for couples who were committed to each other. The marriage union was the starting point for the first man and woman God created. For in the beginning, God created man in His own likeness. He fashioned both male and female and blessed them. Marriage was, and still is, a precious gift from God. 
Unfortunately, this precious gift has been reduced to a superficial prize, similar to something found at the bottom of a Cracker-Jack box. The intimate value of marriage has been exchanged for a cheaper version of romance and casual commitment. So, how can we reclaim God's beautifully wrapped gift, and open it anew? If your marriage has become a shallow representation of what God intended it to be, please take heart. It's not too late to restart! In fact, in the article 5 Ways to Reset Your Marriage, Joshua Straub admits, "Deep down, we all dream about how our lives and relationships could be better. Yet, we often think the dreams are unrealistic." |
