Verse of the Day
For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and they will become one flesh.
~Genesis 2:24~
Thoughts on Today's Verse...
We are different! God makes us male and female so we can be complements of each other. Each is made in God's image. God's intention is that a husband and wife find their primary human relationship with the other. They still honor their parents, but their home is with each other. Their two lives become one. In this context of lifetime security, they share in the intimate knowledge of each other sexually -- becoming "one flesh." This relationship is to be enjoyed (Proverbs 5), protected (1 Thessalonians 4:3-8), and celebrated (Song of Solomon) for life (Matthew 19:6).
My Prayer...
Holy and Almighty Father, please bless me with strength to live in today's sexually charged world with integrity and purity. Please use your Spirit and your Word to instruct, correct, and convict me as I seek to discover your truth for my relationships and celebrate your will for my sexuality. In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.
