Not Be Afraid To Marry

Not Be Afraid to Marry

Marriage is more than human institution
Of course, there is a natural attraction that leads 
A man and woman to marry and have children
Genesis 2:18-24 shows that marriage between man and woman 
Has been part of God’s design from the beginning
This good news for married people and those contemplating marriage
Pope Francis told young people
“Do not be afraid to marry”
Because such relationships are part of divine plan
God will bless and help them
Marriage and raising children today are challenging
And, at times painfully difficult
But God will not abandon you
Married couples ought to pray daily and trust divine grace
God will be with you in good times and in bad
