"...Come here, I will show you the bride, the wife of the Lamb" (Revelation 21:9).
Many Christian parents pray for their child's future spouse -from birth to...well...however long it takes for the child to marry. For some people, however, God chooses to kept them single for His holy purposes.
Marriage on earth between a man and woman is a blessing from God. But there is only one marriage made in heaven. That wedding takes place when by faith we trust in Jesus Christ. It is an eternal marriage. No matter what tragedies strike our earthly marriages, our marriage to Jesus Christ is secure because He is always faithful. Its a marriage built on His self-sacrifice for our sin, not our self-sacrifice for our sin. He alone is our Savior and Redeemer!
May we spend our time on earth living as His bride and preparing for our heavenly union.
-Dale
