What is the Purpose of a Holy Marriage
A Couples formation, more than words, comes through modeling. Each is also listening and seeing your approach to forgiveness: true loving full acceptance. In a word a supernatural TRUST
Even when someone does the worst wrongdoing we can forgive, maybe not go on living or having them live in your head, but forgiving.
A husband and wife do not keep secrets, that intimacy is reserved for that exceptional relationship. Nor should anyone such as a child be a part of that sacred boundary.
This’ above relationship should never be a sparing match, a “ friendly fight “ even; there is no place for strategizing the best offensive moves- NONE.
This type of intellectualism is worldly intellectualism not Godly understanding.
You submit to God, you surrender your will for His, and in that both are in faith expecting God to make the moves; His Will, not theirs and the vanities or materialism of the world. As I am sure all seeking have now given much more thought too.
When this transformation takes place, you expect nothing you simply serve one another, if something generous, kind-hearted, thoughtful, or mysterious happens for the good you can only be pleasantly surprised - right? Not expecting a thing you only gain -gain.
If you were operating in transactions or value-based utilitarian thinking it is I give this so you must do for me that as an equalizer.
When this doesn’t happen we can become disappointed easily because the thinking is for vanity, power over, and greed aka materialism not spiritual gain for the spouse's soul with the aid of the Holy Spirit for an eternity. Not always mutually exclusive for the Soul journey some have great wealth and deep spirituality. Look at Solomon ;)
So there is no equation, nor place for the rule of law in a sparring match, a contest, a next move is mine I will win ………..
This is the way the world thinks of power over versus empowering the heart,
singularly directed to your savior Jesus Christ.
So the world offers married couples options, many many options of value for sure.
But very few wise options lead to their purpose.
Most do not know their purpose so they lose their way or reduce their marriage to a sparring match; with strikes, omissions, and manipulations aka head games - pure destructive evil to the sacrament of marriage or relationship with the Creator
We are to surrender our Will and let Him take over, not impose our Will and say do it my way and I will show
Our focus needs to be singularly directed to the Savior Jesus Christ a Divine man the one Godhead come for the Salvation of the world
