REFLECTING ON GOD’S WORD
Of all the events and circumstances that draw people together,
it would seem that marriage is the most universal and obvious
manifestation of that longing to be one. Though some may sacrifice marriage for what they deem to be a greater good or need,
and others may never find their heart’s way to that dream, all of
us long to be touched by the magic of committed love. There is
something woven into the warp and woof of our lives that passionately searches for it. More than anything, it is the ideal of
marital love that reveals what we are meant to be—all of life
and love so united to one another that there is nothing to divide,
since there is no longer anything but pure oneness. Then we are
no longer two simply because we are one, one flesh.
That is what makes divorce such a sadness, such a personal and
even communal tragedy—that it shatters the vision of what we
are meant to be. That is also why it causes such pain, such a
wrenching; for if marriage fails, might not then also God’s
dream of who we shall be? That seems to be too unbearable
even to dare consider.
Into such fragile human becoming, then, comes the Lord Jesus,
among the married and the divorced, among the sad and the
joyful, among the lost and the hopeful, into what we are no
matter what we are. He is the most profound and transforming
revelation of that unity to which we are called simply because
he unites and embodies both the human and the divine in such a
way that it can never again be alienated.
