Claudia Jessy's wedding : Joined in holy matrimony: The Ohia family.

So much to be thankful for in the year 2018. I can't get over how beautiful my friend who just got married to her amazing king looks. She is indeed a blessed woman and he is a blessed man to have such a beautiful warm hearted lady as a wife.

Just before the wedding we did a little wedding dress search and here we found this gorgeous dress, it looks really amazing on her, she glows in radiant joy. This union is blessed by God. I wish you both a happy married life and a beautiful home.

What Are God’s Purposes for Marriage?

God has a unique purpose for the marriage covenant. The marital relationship affords you the awesome opportunity to showcase Christ’s relationship to His bride (the church). In the same way that Christ sacrificially gave Himself to the church, you and your mate should be willing to sacrifice your individual desires for the sake of your marriage covenant.

“He who finds a wife finds what is good and receives favor from the Lord.”

(Proverbs 18:22)

Partnership – (Amos 3:3) God has given you and your mate to one another as partners for life. True companionship grows within the marriage relationship when there is emotional, spiritual and physical unity.

Pleasure – (Proverbs 5:18)

The marriage relationship and your mate are God’s special gifts to you. True enjoyment of your mate will grow out of self-control and a servant’s heart.

Parenting – (Genesis 1:28)

God’s first command in Scripture was for Adam and Eve to be “fruitful and multiply.” God desires that the earth be filled with godly offspring.

Perfecting – (Romans 8:29)

In the intimate relationship of marriage, you become well aware of your partner’s shortcomings. Your partner is also well aware of your shortcomings! God uses both your weaknesses and strengths to sharpen and conform you and your partner to the image of Christ.
