one flesh

My description of marriage is of a man and woman becoming one flesh. Do you know married couples that you think of as a single unit, even though they have their own separate identities? This was my plan for their union and happiness but it serves an additional purpose for it illustrates a transcendent reality, for I spoke of Christ and the church. Just as you think of happily married couples as a single entity, do people look at you and me and think of us together as a single entity? This is the logical implication of having your life hidden in me, and letting your light shine before men that they may glorify me.
