The Two Shall Become One


"Therefore a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and they shall become one flesh." ~ Genesis 2:24

Despite society’s perception, marriage is hard work. Fairy tales don’t exist. In order to live happily ever after, you have to work at it. It doesn’t just happen.

Interestingly, recently, Michele and I were approached by someone who suggested that because we were married, we had some sort of telepathic abilities where we can read each other’s minds. Michele response: “I wish. That’s actually our biggest challenge – that we can’t read each other’s minds.”

Please don’t get it twisted. When you fall in love, everything doesn’t just work itself out. It takes time, effort, and patience. God never told us it would be easy.
But make no mistake – it’s definitely worth the effort.

God bless,
J.W.
