Morning, March 29th

Read: Genesis 2:24

We are different! God makes men and women so that they can help each other out. Each one reflects God's image. God wants a husband and wife to have their most important relationship with each other, after their relationship with Him. Even though they still respect their parents, they now live with each other. They merge their two lives into one. In this situation of lifelong security, they get to know each other very well intimately and become "one flesh." This relationship should be enjoyed (Proverbs 5), protected (1 Thessalonians 4:3–8), and celebrated (Song of Solomon) for the rest of their lives (Matthew 19:6).

Prayer

Dear Holy and Powerful Father, may I live with honesty and purity in our sinfully charged world today. I would ask and thank You for Your Spirit and Your Word teaching, correcting, and convicting me, as I endeavor to find the truth about my relationships and celebrate Your will for my life. In Jesus' precious name, I pray. Amen.
