God's Plan
"But when God made the world, 'he made people male and
female.'" Mark 10:6 (ERV)
KEY THOUGHT:
God's plan, rooted in the creation story of Genesis 2, is that one
woman and one man be married for life. As male and female, they are
different, yet each one is created in the image of God. They are
different -- not just because of the difference in their two lives,
with different experiences and different tastes, but also because they
are made fundamentally different. Learning to blend these differences
through mutual love and submission reflects the mystery of God himself,
who is Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
TODAY'S PRAYER:
O Father in heaven, help the marriages among your people today more
fully reflect your divine intention. Teach us to submit to each other
out of love and respect -- not just love and respect for our marriage
partner, but also love and respect for Jesus as our Lord. In his name I
pray. Amen.

Did u know that babies are made exactly the same in the 1st 12 weeks? It is only after 12 weeks that those with X-Y chromozones start to develop the male bits. So fundermentally, we are made from the same "mold" and in the image of God.
