Genesis 2


"It is not good that man should be alone; I will make him a helper comparable to him." v.18

Read chapter 2.  
God desires relationships, not only with Him but with others as well and in a marriage relationship.  He knows it's not good for man to be alone although many people sometimes think they'd be better off that way.  He even knows which comparable helper is perfect for each man and woman.  Adam didn't know what he was necessarily longing for since Eve wasn't even created when he was naming all the creatures and when that was all done his helper still wasn't found.  Yet God blessed him and brought Adam something far better than he'd ever seen, Eve.  So too with us longing for that deep intimate relationship for a husband or wife and when seems all hope is given up, we have to trust God that He'll not leave us alone and has someone perfect for us.  Having patience when all else seems hopeless.  How do you deal with loneliness either in or out of marriage?
