The Sanctity of Marriage

I always wonder why people today were considering marriage just like a piece of paper. As if its something to be done easily and something that could be easily throw away. The bond that people made out of love can be easily cut just by cutting it. It’s like a thread that’s too fragile. I can define marriage today by only four letter word “EASY”, easy to made and easy to throw it away.

We seem to forget that God is the one who made marriage. He made us, he gave us life and by making us he also gave us the power to make a person, people like us. He does a marvelous thing by making man and women do a thing that’s out of ordinary by making another person and by giving birth. Until now the process of human development or how people made is mysterious and forever will be mysterious to us. But it is the way of God saying that we’re his tool of making life and also mean that life is depend on us.

But today, it’s not new or just ordinary for us to hear news about abortion and divorce. Abortion and Divorce are the two ordinary things people do today just because of their mistakes. But if the mistake of one person can also be done by another person this mistake will grow for another mistake. Does it sound like an “excuse” for us to do another mistake? Are we made to always do mistakes because we’re not perfect? Or instead because we’re not made perfect we think of a way of not doing mistakes and we will be careful of what we’re doing. Do we think that the “Creator of Life”, God, will be pleased to us? Does he want us to use our power to destroy the things he had made for us? I know we don’t want to fail him… but by doing these simple ordinary things… we already failed him.

We all have family. A family that love us and care for us and this can also be called home. Warm and full of love. But if this family is made of broken glass, we all get hurt from it. For me, a broken family is made of two dumb person living together made out of human desires or by mistake. And divorce is their pass to do it all over again. To fled for their mistakes and for doing another mistakes. Is this wise? No, its stupidity and they will die because of it. Then abortion is born because of this stupidity.

You may ask, when this stupidity starts? Its starts when we’re young. Yes, its start to us, young man and women. Yet, they used to say that young man and women were the hope of one nation or by all means hope of this world. But if this hope we’re the start of making life miserable, can we called it hope of mankind or we can just called it mistake of mankind? What I’m trying to say is that the young man and women were the ones who will make this world a heaven or a living hell. But I think I know where we’re heading to and it’s too obvious for me to imply.

“We have eyes to see and ears to hear… but if this senses gone we will used our hearts to feel.” We should use our hearts to know what’s right and wrong. It’s never too late for us to do good and never too late for us to change. If we only see and hear bad things in this world, we shouldn’t use it instead open our hearts for us to see the real thing. We are always responsible in our actions. And we should all know that having a family is a responsibility given to us, to all of us. This power of making life is a gift we received from God. We all have right to live. We all have right to love.

It’s true that sometimes we made mistakes but it’s not an excuse of saying we’re just people. We should know that this mistake is the proof of disobeying God’s will and failing him. But the worst thing is we’re heading to our own destruction.

Respect is another thing. If we know how to respect we know the meaning of it. Respect is connected to love. And love is connected to Life. If we respect marriage we know the importance of love and the life we’re living. If we seek for a better life, we should know how to respect LIFE itself.
