Two people are better off than one, for they can help each other succeed. If one person falls, the other can reach out and help. But someone who falls alone is in real trouble. ECCLESIASTES 4:9-10

MARRIAGE WAS DESIGNED by God to meet man's need for companionship. God said of Adam,"It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make a helper who is just right for him" (Genesis 2:18). However, some couples have not found companionship in marriage. They are still alone, cut off, and isolated.

Such loneliness may be painful, but it is doesn't have to last forever. We can overcome loneliness by taking positive action. I suggest taking "baby steps." Don't look at the whole and think about how bad your marriage is. Rather, focus on one step you might take to make it better.

Break through the silence with one act of kindness. Give her a flower, and say, "I was thinking about you today." Look for something he does well, and tell him you appreciate it. Give him a passionate kiss, and say,"I just wanted to remind you of what it was like when we first married. I'm willing to start over if you are." Remember that the Bible is clear about the benefits of companionship, as we read in the book of Ecclesiastes. We are made for each other, and we can support each other in innumerable ways. Keep taking steps toward each other, and loneliness will evaporate.
