On marriage

When you think about it, really think about it, marriage is like the weirdest thing. I mean, I have never before had a roommate that I’ve also wanted to get naked with. I mean here we are searching for this person, this one person with whom we want to have sex and make love and make babies. But we also promise to clean up their puke, take care of them when they’re sick, share a bathroom, and do the dishes together. Wow, you really better make sure you got the right person here, huh? Because you sure are sharing a lot. Yeah. I mean that’s a lot of things you’re looking for all in one person. Better make sure you make a pretty good team.

And then I wonder, how could you possibly go about finding this person without some serious guidance and some help? Anybody with me here? I mean, I feel like I’ve got a pretty great support team. Actually, that’s under appreciating them in even saying that. I have a rockin’ great group of people who love me and want to see me succeed and want me to end up with a fabulous man in a strong healthy growing loving forever-lasting marriage. And I have my God leading me. I mean, I’ve got our Dad on my side!

So then how do people even begin to start and feel at all confidence in this search of theirs if they don't have a great dad or role model or entire cheerleading/wisdom team on their side? Man, no wonder so many people don’t believe in marriage, so many fail. We are so broken and need a leader. And I mean like a really good leader. The Leader.

Oh my Father, I am so fabulously ridiculously glad to have you on my side. Thank You. For everything. You are the best.
