. . . forsaking all others. . . you may have said this at your wedding, or if you get married, you may say this on your wedding day. The offer of cheap intimacy exists in billboards, magazines, movies, thoughts, and people willing to offer it. Cheap intimacy costs me nothing - I do not have to pay for it, I do not have to forsake anything. True marriage intimacy costs this . . . forsaking all others - only having intimacy with my spouse.
Many who say . . . forsaking all others. . . will choose to not forsake them, but to walk away from the one they vowed to stay with. What will make you walk away from the one you swore to God you would not leave?
All who say . . . forsaking all others. . . .must face the choice to forsake others, whether that be an idea or a real person, and to hold on only to that one, in reality and in the eyes, and in the mind, and in the heart.
FORSAKING ALL OTHERS
help me God to forsake all others and to cling to my wife only. . .
