The Book of Genesis Chapter Two V- 21 and 24

21 So the LORD God cast a deep sleep on the man, and while he was asleep, he took out one of his ribs and closed up its place with flesh. 22 The LORD God then built the rib that he had taken from the man into a woman. When he brought her to the man, 23 the man said: “This one, at last, is bone of my bones and flesh of my flesh; This one shall be called ‘woman,’ for out of man this one has been taken.” 24 That is why a man leaves his father and mother and clings to his wife, and the two of them become one body.

Genesis 2:21-24 serves as a profound testament to God's design for marriage, illustrating the beautiful union intended for husband and wife. In these verses, God creates woman from man, establishing not just a physical bond but a spiritual and emotional one as well. The passage culminates in the declaration that "a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and they shall become one flesh." This powerful imagery signifies the merging of two individuals into a single entity, united in love and purpose.

My wife and I deeply resonate with this scripture, which is why we chose to join our names and become Cruz-Wiggins. In doing so, we symbolize our commitment to becoming one in God, both in our marriage and in our lives as believers in Christ. Embracing the title of “Soul-Mates in Christ Jesus,” we recognize that our relationship transcends the physical; it is a spiritual covenant grounded in faith and love.

The concept of oneness is not merely a poetic sentiment—it's a divine principle that God has instilled in the institution of marriage. As believers, we understand that our union is not just about companionship; it is about building each other up in Christ, sharing in joys and challenges, and walking together in faith. Our love continues to grow, transforming our lives and strengthening our bond as we align our hearts with God’s purpose for us.

In a world that often challenges the sanctity of marriage, we find solace and strength in Genesis 2:21-24, celebrating the divine intimacy that is available to us as we strive to embody the love that God has envisioned. Today I honor my Soul-Mate in Christ Jesus, Mi Tonita. Amen.

Join me as we pray our daily prayer of forgiveness. The Lord’s Prayer.

At the Savior's command and formed by divine teaching, we dare to pray:

Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name; thy kingdom come, thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us; and lead us not into temptation but deliver us from evil. Deliver us, Lord, we pray, from every evil, graciously grant peace in our days, that, by the help of your mercy, we may be always free from sin and safe from all distress, as we await the blessed hope and the coming of our Savior, Jesus Christ. For the kingdom, the power and the glory are yours now and forever. Amen.

I am sorry Lord. I believe You died and rose for me. Please forgive me as I forgive others. I share You as my Lord and Savior seeking to live your Will in all things. Prayers for wife Toni and my mother Betty pray for our children especially our two oldest Alexandra & Allen Son in Law Mark Stern; Julian, Gabriel and Jeffrey and our grandchildren Oliver, Julian and Elliott. We pray for those we’ve said we’d pray for and those who’ve asked us to pray for them. We pray for the dying as we do each day Lord give them peace in their last breath. We pray for Holy Mother Church. Our prayers for our niece Brittany. In Jesus Precious Blood by His Name we pray. Amen.

I am a poet obedient to Christ,

Ephesians 6:17-20

02-14-2025 Genesis 2 v2124

**Be One IN Christ and His Holy Father**

In twilight's glow, God breathed a sigh,

From Adam’s side, a love did nigh,

He took a rib, in tender grace,

To craft a bride, a sacred space.

With heart entwined, they danced as one,

In Garden’s light, their journey begun,

“Leave mother’s arms, let love take flight,

In unity, they shine so bright.”

Two souls, one path, in faith they stand,

Together forged by God’s own hand,

With every trial, their bond would grow,

In Christ, their spirits overflow.

So let us honor this divine decree,

In love and grace, we truly see,

For in His plan, we find delight,

Two become one, in love’s pure light. Amen.
