Those who are contemplating marriage should consider what will be the character and influence of the home they are founding. As they become parents, a sacred trust is committed to them. Upon them depends in a great measure the well-being of their children in this world, and their happiness in the world to come. To a great extent they determine both the physical and the moral stamp that the little ones receive.
And upon the character of the home depends the condition of society; the weight of each family's influence will tell in the upward or the downward scale.
The parties may not have worldly wealth, but they should have the far greater blessing of health.
Marriage affects the afterlife both in this world and in the world to come.

He who gave Eve to Adam as a helpmeet, performed His first miracle at a marriage festival. In the festal hall where friends and kindred rejoiced together, Christ began His public ministry. Thus He sanctioned marriage, recognizing it as an institution that He Himself had established. Christ loved the church, and gave Himself for it; that He might sanctify and cleanse it; . . . that it should be holy and without blemish. So ought men to love their wives. Ephesians 5:25-28.

Around every family there is a sacred circle that should be kept unbroken. Within this circle no other person has a right to come. Let not the husband or the wife permit another to share the confidences that belong solely to themselves.
