Our next door neighbours are being married,they have been divorced,have
been living together,my wife and I are attending the reception.This is the way it is in our society,our other immediate neighbours,have been divorced,they have not remarried,but have lived together for many years.
Divorce and remarriage is not a new thing,our Saviour sought to stress the importance of marriage,because of those things that weakened it. In Islam
divorce is easy,but it is not without pain,but that's the way it is.In the West divorce likewise is easy,but it is not easy,for the children,and usually one of the people involved can suffer greatly. Yet I believe Gods purpose for
humanity is marriage,even though it brings with it ,a great challenge,to be faithful,loving,and committed.As a Christian I am not there to judge people,even though they may have acted wrongly,adultery is a sin,that's what Gods word teaches [Exodus 20 v14 ].I am reminded in the words of William Shakespeare ,that the course of true love ,never runs smooth,but I would add,'with true love it will succeed'
A prayer.
Dear God in a world where so many things are broken,have mercy ,and help
any one who is struggling in their marriage,and those who are trying again,
in Jesus name Amen.
