Many waters cannot quench love; rivers cannot wash it away.
Marriage is hard! There are bills and children and unemployment and sickness and chores and in-laws and car trouble and deadlines and headaches. Add to that two sinful people - people who are selfish and prideful and lazy and lustful and angry and spiteful and who just cannot hold their tongues. And love is supposed to be stronger than all of this?
This is where that third strand in Ecclesiastes 4 is so vitally important. Can the love of two people withstand the raging waters of life? Not easily. But God can. And He will help those who trust in Him.
