Nexus Recap: Feb 4th, 2008 (Part 2: Lessons from Duct Tape)

God is an amazing designer. He has created humans with an unbelievable bonding ability, sorta like duct tape. Lets consider this bonding ability sort of a human stickiness that helps us to attach to another person. Now without getting into the details, this is what the physical aspect of a relationship is all about. Physically the body releases chemical called endorphins that create an emotional link during physical intimacy between two people. The stronger the physical or emotional link, the more endorphins, the stronger the bond.
Here is the issue: These bonds are way to strong to take casually. Once they stick, they are not designed to let go... ever...
So in a culture that talks about just having a good time and trying things out it is no surprise that so many relationships do not stick together... even marriages. So many people have lost their stickiness long before they find the person they want to be stuck to for the rest of their life.
So yeah... the whole "friends with benefits" thing... that was God's idea... but he meant it for marriage and he meant it forever... Best friends with incredible, unique, benefits for the rest of your life! True romance lasts for a whole lifetime... and is worth waiting for.
