Three strands

Ecclesiastes 4:12 “Though one may be overpowered, two can defend themselves, a cord of three strands is not quickly broken.” Valentine’s Day and this verse have much in common–though not originally.  In today’s world, today is a day of recognized love.  The Author of love is God.  God is love.  In a successful marriage love overwhelms the relationship between a husband and wife.  That love relationship is strong; however, when a couple includes the Author of love, that relationship is unbreakable.  Three strands make for a wonderful relationship.  Much wisdom is gained in regard to marriage from this verse.  Every married couple should study this verse and apply its truth.
