Marriage is between a man and a woman
Jesus, in answering the Pharisee about their question, emphasized that marriage is between a man and a woman in Matthew 19:4-5
Matthew 19:
4 And he answered and said unto them, Have ye not read, that he which made them at the beginning made them male and female,
5 And said, For this cause shall a man leave father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife: and they twain shall be one flesh? -kjv
4 And He answered and said to them, “Have you not read that He who made them at the beginning ‘made them male and female,’ 5 and said, ‘For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh’? -nkjv
4 “Haven’t you read,” he replied, “that at the beginning the Creator ‘made them male and female,’ 5 and said, ‘For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh’? -niv

Satisfaction in God’s will
When we say God’s will is the best for us, sometimes we doubt it. Then, we have to be mindful that we have a sinful heart and know that maybe we have become dissatisfied with God’s will without even being aware of it. After which, remind ourselves that God’s will is indeed still the best for us.

Three questions

Thinking in their shoes
Matthew 7:12
Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them: for this is the law and the prophets. -kjv
Therefore, whatever you want men to do to you, do also to them, for this is the Law and the Prophets. -nkjv
So in everything, do to others what you would have them do to you, for this sums up the Law and the Prophets. -niv
Meditations:
1) Sometimes we react to others according to how we feel. Though that is honesty to others and ourselves and being frank about it, it can be brutal to others.
2) Sometimes we do not know how to react to others in their situation because we have never been in their situation before. We might act according to what we think we should do but it might still hurt the other party.
3) I heard over a radio broadcast that in this digital age, children occupying their free time with computer games and all sorts of digital media are actually altering their brain structure. They are less likely to and also not able to think in the shoes of others – less empathy.
4) As christians, we are required to think in others shoes as shown in this verse. The motivation should always be love. It is not easy to love because christian love is supernatural.

Jesus is God
Basics of the christian faith – Jesus is God, illustrated in Philippians 2
Philippians 2: 5-6
5 Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus:
6 Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: -kjv
5 Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus, 6 who, being in the form of God, did not consider it robbery to be equal with God, -nkjv
5 In your relationships with one another, have the same mindset as Christ Jesus:
6 Who, being in very nature God,
did not consider equality with God something to be used to his own advantage; -niv

Partly Fulfilled
This verse in the bible is only partially fulfilled:
Isaiah 9
6 For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace. -kjv
6 For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. – niv
6 For unto us a Child is born, Unto us a Son is given; And the government will be upon His shoulder. And His name will be called Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. -nkjv
