| Our Marriage date- 30th September, 2023 |
Marriage is a crucial life turning point for everyone. Making the decision to spend lifetime with someone through both good and bad times is absolutely essential at this particular point in one's life. However, several kinds of issues need to be settled before the wedding, for the relationship to flourish and last a lifetime.
On the day 20th September, 2023 : I was excited to be hitched for the rest of my life simultaneously a little nervous. Everything was all set and we were ready to take off to Hong Kong very soon. The only thought was, there is only few days left to get married.
Both of us were looking forward to our wedding aisle walk. For both of us, the months-long odyssey ended in an amazing reality. It is clearly stated that the one who looks for true love always finds their true partner. And eventually I've got her, my soul mate. The days were getting closer, and time was running out. It was time for us to let go of our bachelorhood and spinsterhood.

On the day 27th September, 2023 : We started our journey towards Hong Kong from Pedong. We safely landed in Hong Kong International airport. After passing through the immigration we proceeded to the baggage reclaim hall to collect our baggage and after collecting our baggage, we then headed to the arrival hall where my family and my then wife-to-be were waiting for us.

In my perception, God created marriage primarily for three reasons.
God created marriage primarily for three reasons: To be with one another (companionship), procreation or reproduction, and redemption.
These purposes are still important today and are needful for the proper functioning of the society even today. Let's examine each one in more details.
Companionship
The first purpose of marriage is companionship. The Lord himself stated it wasn’t good for man to be alone in Genesis 2:18.
God designed marriage in order to provide a profound bond between man and woman. And Godly relationship is always based on love, trust, and communication and it portrays a clear picture of our relationship with God.
Marriage is the way where husband and wife come together to share their lives and experiences with each other. A healthy marriage ought to be a refuge from the world where couples can find solace and comfort.
Procreation or Reproduction
Procreation or Reproduction is the second purpose of marriage, Genesis 1 :28 God blessed Adam and Eve to prosper and multiply, fill the earth and conquer it. That was God's intend for humankind. God designed marriage for couple to become parents and raise their children in a godly way. Children are blessings from God, and it's important that they grow up in an environment or home where they can experience the love and grace of God.
Parents are the first teachers and the environment is the first school of the children. Everything that happens around them shapes their mind and it's the responsibility of the parents to instill God's values and truth into their lives. A family with a strong foundation in the principle of God will have a far higher chances of success than the one who doesn't have this foundation.
Redemption
Redemption is the third purpose of marriage. Inorder, for the both man and woman to reconcile and be free from their sins, God designed marriage.
A couple who decides to get hitched into a holy marriage covenant, follow God’s will for their lives. This plan requires them to remain devoted to God and each other for pursuing God’s will for their lives.
After marriage, the husband and wife unite in holiness and hold one another's responsibilities for continuing their journey to salvation.
This plan involves helping one another to remain steadfast in righteousness and raising children in a God fearing and loving household.
The foundation of healthy or happy marriage is always built on Jesus Christ as well as His teachings.
The teaching of Jesus Christ acts as the cornerstone of a strong marriage.
Are the Purposes of Marriage Still important Today?
These three purposes of marriage still holds true meaning today.
- Companionship is important because it provides a close relationship between husband and wife. They can share their lives and experiences.
- Procreation is imperative because God designed marriage so that couples can have children. Children are blessings from God, and it’s crucial for them to be raised in a God-fearing home.
- Redemption is also very important because when husband and wife come together in holy marriage covenant, they indeed commit to God’s plan for their lives.
Marriage is indeed God’s best Idea
Marriage is indeed God’s best idea, and He has an ultimate reason for designing it the way He did. These three purposes are still imperative today and are so essential for a healthy and happy society.

The Bible teaches, "Husbands, love your wives" (Ephesians 5:25) and "the young women to love their husbands" (Titus 2:4). Compared to other relationship, marriage can lead to a more deeper and selfless love. Couples need this kind of love, this is what Jesus demands from His followers.
