Ah, what a lovely word. So simple, yet not. A lifetime of work goes into making a marriage and we are to pattern our marriages after the relationship that Christ has for his Church. Christ only has one bride, not many brides. If he is unhappy with his bride he does not dismiss her and choose another, he sticks with her and guides her and loves her until the consummation of the world.
This should be the basis of marriage and the standard by which to judge it. The more that we seek to understand each other and the mystery of marriage, the more we will fall in love with Christ, His Church, and our spouse. Fidelity to those vows, like Christ made to the church, will set us free and will transform two into one everytime.
Faith seeking understanding...isn't that what we should always be striving to do?

A New Truck
Well, I must say that this has nothing to do really with church or anything like that other than that God is a wonderful guy. Looking for trucks has made me appreciate the fact that I don't have to do it very often and that it takes a special person to sell cars day in and day out.
That being said, I am in the final processes of purchasing a '98 Ranger XLT 4x4. It is silver gray and although it has no tilt wheel or cruise, I could care less. It has keyless entry...seriously though it will help to keep the mileage down on my '85 Grand Prix. They have about the same 88,430 give or take a few here and there. I take care of my cars and they take care of me usually. I feel confident about this and I know that God wouldn't let me feel this way if I wasn't supposed to. It's not like I am regretting this decision either. I am glad that I did it. I trust in God. (Thank you Divine Mercy chaplet). I've had 2 trucks sold under me so far and this felt right after I went through with it. Luckily, I have a great job that allowed me to do this in the first place.
It's going to be an exciting week, I know it. It began with a family reunion and it will end with hopefully good news all around. I'll keep you posted...that is if anyone reads this besides me.
