"The Two Shall
Become One Flesh"
When God said of Adam and Eve,
"The two shall become one flesh", he was not speaking only of
physical oneness. In marriage, all of life is to be shared, and shared so
deeply that it can be said of us, "we become one". Communication
is the vehicle by which we attain this kind of intimacy.
If we are to become one and enjoy the warm
flow of life, we must communicate. We cannot know each other unless we
confide in each other. The apostle Paul put his finger on this truth when
he said: "For who among men knows the thoughts of a man except the
man's spirit within him?" We cannot read each other's minds.
If your spouse is to know your thoughts,
feelings, and desires, then you must choose to reveal them. Only then can
they possibly understand you. Communication is the life-line of marriage.
Without it the marriage fails. With it, we can attain deep satisfying
intimacy.
