That directed at me or Psycho?
Good article. I guess you mean that last part - that marriage becomes the home for the unrealized expectations?
Yes, and no. That’s a really good point, marriage with me in it becomes less than just marriage - but the point is that marriage helps us to fulfill marriage without God we couldn’t stand a chance.
I’m not asking for a perfect marriage - far from it. I am saying that if you do marry, that you work through the rough patches.
It is hard, really hard. Believe me, I understand some of it, even if I don’t understand all of it. And there’s a lot that is a total mystery to me.
Applause! Anyone who can't admit that is kidding himself. :)
Newt converted after his first marriage - the first marriage would not have been a valid sacramental marriage.
Also upon conversion a person is required to go confession before receiving communion. Confession with true repentance results in absolution - the soul is free of previous sins committed.
It is hard, really hard. Believe me, I understand some of it, even if I don’t understand all of it. And there’s a lot that is a total mystery to me.
Well said and I agree!!!
