| Genesis 2:24 Therefore a man leaves his father and his mother and cleaves to his wife, and they become one flesh. |
When two people come together in a sexual union they become, as
the Bible, so aptly puts it, "One Flesh".
the Bible, so aptly puts it, "One Flesh".
They become one flesh, one mind, one heart whether they acknowledge it or realize it, this is
what happens. It is like clasping your hands together and pulling them apart only your hands
are coated with paint or something. Perhaps, to make the point clear, you have a different
color paint on each hand. You clasp them together to imitate the sexual union of a man and a
woman then you pull them apart. The First thing you notice is that it is hard to uncouple them.
The second thing you notice is that there is a little different color paint on each hand.
Carrying that analogy further, if the hands were people, when they come together they
become "one" on every level of life and when they pull apart they become "fragmented". If
someone goes from one sexually intimate relationship to another they keep up the
fragmentation process until they almost can't think straight anymore.
Their ability to make clear decisions is compromised, because they are fragmented in mind,
heart & soul!
Does this make sense?
While in God's perfect plan, a man and a woman become 'one flesh' in the Sacrament of
Marriage, unity becomes a blessing. The coupling of husband and wife is a healing process
that is meant to bring about the best qualities in both spouses. As the two become one flesh
they should supplement and compliment one another. Making the union a blessing to all they
come in contact with. The union is a way to accomplish more together then either spouse
could accomplish alone.
