I. Marriage in God’s Plan
1604
God who created man out of love also calls him to love the fundamental and
innate vocation of every human being. For man is created in the image and
likeness of God who is himself love.90 Since God created him man and
woman, their mutual love becomes an image of the absolute and unfailing love
with which God loves man. It is good, very good, in the Creator’s eyes. and
this love which God blesses is intended to be fruitful and to be realized in
the common work of watching over creation: “and God blessed them, and God
said to them: ‘Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the earth and subdue
it.'”91
