Genesis 2:18 “And the LORD God said, It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him.”
Whenever something is not good, God has a very good solution. No matter how introverted one may be, loneliness is just not a good thing, not socially, not practically, and not spiritually. God Himself does not work alone, and He didn’t design for you to work alone either.
God’s declaration that it is not good for man to be alone comes in the immediate context of His commandment and warning to Adam about the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil, which suggests that the help of his future spouse would not only be social and practical, but also spiritual in nature. Together, man and wife would be stronger to obey the Word of God and resist temptation. If this spiritual purpose in marriage were sought after, nourished and developed today, how much healthier and happier the family would be! What will you do now to help your family believe and obey the Word of God?
