I. Marriage in God’s Plan

From The Catechism of the Catholic Church

1615
This unequivocal insistence on the indissolubility of the marriage bond may
have left some perplexed and could seem to be a demand impossible to realize.
However, Jesus has not placed on spouses a burden impossible to bear, or too
heavy – heavier than the Law of Moses.¹⁰⁸ By coming to restore the
original order of creation disturbed by sin, he himself gives the strength and
grace to live marriage in the new dimension of the Reign of God. It is by
following Christ, renouncing themselves, and taking up their crosses that
spouses will be able to “receive” the original meaning of marriage
and live it with the help of Christ.¹⁰⁹ This grace of Christian
marriage is a fruit of Christ’s cross, the source of all Christian life.
