Ask me anything

Loud musings and quiet rants of a Christian, who happens to be a fourth year resident (FM/PM) preoccupied with global health.
Marriage is patterned after Christ’s covenant relationship to his redeemed people, the church. And therefore, the highest meaning and the most ultimate purpose of marriage is to put the covenant relationship of Christ and his church on display. That is why marriage exists. If you are married, that is why you are married. If you hope to be, that should be your dream.

John Piper (via mesmerizedbyyahweh)

So true. And perhaps the most important reason why we define marriage as we do.

How different when couples say, “it didn’t work out” rather than, “we didn’t work it out”.
