The sacrament of marriage is a sign to the world of God’s own life and love. By blessing it in this way, God invites the spouses to become heroic in their love and commitment, standing by one another for the whole of their lives. Many people look around at our world attacked by constant divorces and miserable marriages and wonder if this kind of love is even possible. The Christian answers confidently that it is not. It’s impossible. We are not capable of a love that’s permanent, fruitful, total, selfless, and faithful… But God is! And in the sacrament of Christian marriage, He gives us the ability to love each other with the kind of love that stands out in our world full of broken relationships. He allows us to love one another with His love! Marriage isn’t easy, but it is worth it, and our God is there to help us every step of the way!
