ONE Flesh

By Marcia Quainoo

And the glory which thou gavest me I have given them; that they may be one, even as we are one:

I in them, and thou in me, that they may be made perfect in one; and that the world may know that thou hast sent me, and hast loved them, as thou hast loved me. -John 17:22-23

ONE Flesh is inspired by the Holy Spirit as an extension of my last book BEULAH HalleluYAH. e groom meets the bride and the two become one esh. It was written over three-month period which includes random inspired texts, thoughts, and experiences my husband and I shared together.

After the husband meets the wife, what is next? Is it the perfect union? If not, what makes it perfect? I myself did not really understand this inspired title at rst; however, as I journal the three months, my vision has cleared up. It is all about maintenance. ONE Flesh means the same as whole body. Now what? Who makes up the whole body?

ONE Flesh gives us an exclusive look into the whole body. What I loved about this journey is the fact that it was short, simple, and pretty much to the point. Hopefully, you all will be able to answer these questions for yourselves as we take this journey together. Let us just see what the ending will be.

First, I dedicate this book to God Almighty who have made it all possible for me to experience His saving grace and mercy. I thank You, Lord for the power that worketh within me to accomplish the plan that You have for my life. I thank You, Father, in heaven for giving me a chance to experience marriage as one in Christ Jesus.

Secondly, I dedicate this book to each single person looking to marry, those currently married, also those that are divorced in hopes of being married again. There is hope in Christ Jesus.

Last but not the least, I dedicate this book to my beautiful family. I love you all so much. Family matters.

Acknowledgments

Once again, this book is inspired by the Holy Spirit. I would like to take the opportunity to thank each of you for embarking on this three-month journey with me.

To my husband, Michael, thank you for allowing the whole world to take a journey with us as testament of what only God Almighty can do. I thank you for always loving, encouraging, and supporting me. Thank you for believing in me. I am so grateful to the Lord for allowing us to have crossed paths that special day. When it looked like I had thrown in the towel as it related to marriage and relationships, your patience and love was there to revive me by the grace of God. I thank you for being consistent in your love, support, and patience with me. I pray that you will continue to obtain favor from the Lord. I love you.

To our dear children, Kaneidra and Jeremy, thank you so much for being awesome. It is my prayer that you both will follow your desire and acknowledge the Lord Almighty in everything that you accomplish in life. I thank the Lord for choosing me as your mom. It has been a privilege to have watch you all blossom to such strong and independent adults. I know Jeremy Jr. will also see this one day. Thank you, grandson, as well as our future grands.

A special thanks to all those individuals whom have prayed for us and spoken blessings over our lives. You are indeed in our hearts. I do not want to leave anyone out. You know who you are. God bless you abundantly.

And the Lord God cause a deep sleep to fall upon Adam, and he slept: and he took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh instead thereof; And the rib, which the Lord God had taken from man, made he a woman, and brought her unto the man. And Adam said, This is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh: she shall be called Woman, because she was taken out of Man. Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh. (Genesis 2:21–24, emphasis mine)

So ought men to love their wives as their own bodies. He that loveth his wife loveth himself. For no man ever yet hated his own flesh; but nourisheth and cherisheth it, even as the Lord the church: For we are members of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones.
