The marriage in the video exemplifies our marriage with Christ better than any other I've seen. It is selfless, giving, beauty in two becoming one.
Man and I knew a couple in our church in Tulsa, a few years back, that I am reminded of today. The man was wheelchair bound, he had profound CP (if I remember correctly), the woman was (maybe still is) a professional model. They were engaged to be married. I admit it made me uncomfortable, how could they get married, how could she love him? He could not speak, they had their own kind of sign language. As I have come to greater relationship with and in Christ, I think I can grasp the corner of what their love must be like. A true model of marriage, a thing to be envied.
I'm blessed with a good marriage, a great one actually. If yours needs help, then I recommend getting John Piper's book mentioned in the video, you can get it for free on desiringgod.org. And read Debi Pearl's book Created to be His Helpmeet. Good stuff!
