Everything was Good before ‘the’ Adam and Eve completed their monu-’very’-mental act… Right?

Well, in a moral sense such is true, but read Genesis 2:18!

God affirms before the Fall, after affirming that everything He made was good, in regard to the reality of Man that there was one thing in the context of humanity that was not so good… it was not good for him to be alone!

Genesis 2:23-24 speak of the covenanting together of the two-to-become-one!

Here are the details of a recent study…

Getting married is good for you, according a New Zealand-led international study of nearly 35,000 people across 15 countries.

Tying the knot was positive for the mental health of both men and women, reducing the risks of the likelihood of most mental disorders such as depression, anxiety and substance abuse, the study found.

The world-first study, led by clinical psychologist Kate Scott from the University of Otago, Wellington, was based on World Health Organisation mental health surveys across developing and developed countries in the past decade, and published in the UK journal Psychological Medicine.

By contrast, separation, divorce or being widowed was associated with substantially increased risk of mental health disorders in both genders; particularly substance abuse for women and depression for men.

Now before all the single people feel all left out, if God has called you and so gifted you with singleness, then make much of this calling in how you live this out, and be content with your lot in this life…

… and if you are already in the union of two-becoming-one… make much of her/him!…

…or if you are presently on the prowl… choose wisely!!!
