11 Also, if two lie down together, they will keep warm.
But how can one keep warm alone?
12 Though one may be overpowered,
two can defend themselves.
A cord of three strands is not quickly broken. Ecclesiastes 4:11-12
As we prepare this week for my daughter's wedding, there are so many things to reflect on and be grateful for as we enter this period of letting her go to her new life. A life of marriage is not something to be taken lightly, as so many in our society have done. They say that over 50% of marriages end in divorce, and I can honestly say that this most likely happens because those couples do not put God at the forefront of their marriage. When God is a part of the married life, and intertwined with the couple, it is hard for the enemy to attack the marriage. That doesn't mean the enemy won't leave that marriage alone, but it does make it harder to destroy like the enemy enjoys doing. While some people aren't married, or have lost a spouse, or even those who are divorced, having God intertwined with your life, makes you a stronger individual. As I begin to prepare to welcome a new member to our family, I know that having God at the center of our life, only makes us a stronger and more loving family. Wind your cord with God and see what He can do.
Have a great weekend.
Matt
