Summary
PII: We're one flesh but clearly we're different people. How does that work? The Bible tells us "therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh," Gen 2:24. How do we do that practically?
We're listening in to the second half of my interview with Ruth about what it means to let our husband journey alongside us. And be united at the same time.

| 0:00.0 | Welcome to the Delight Your Marriage Podcast, the show where you hear from amazing and inspiring |
| 0:08.1 | wives sharing their struggles, triumphs, and advice for this journey called marriage. |
| 0:13.9 | Here's your host, Bella Rose. |
| 0:18.7 | Hi and welcome. |
| 0:20.3 | Thank you for joining. Is this your first time at the Delight Your Marriage |
| 0:24.1 | podcast? Well, if it is, I want to say welcome. Here is a place where we talk about marriage. We talk |
| 0:30.6 | about it God's way. We talk about what the Bible says about a woman and a man coming together |
| 0:37.3 | for life. One thing I know my husband reminds me of |
| 0:40.8 | is right before we were married, a pastor friend told him this really great advice that my husband |
| 0:47.5 | has brought up many times since then. But he said, when you're getting married, there's a spot in the |
| 0:53.7 | Bible that says you leave your |
| 0:57.1 | father and your mother and you cleave to your wife. So his advice to my husband was to always |
| 1:03.5 | choose your wife. And I think that's been a really important thing in our lives and has really |
| 1:09.9 | guided us a lot of times when maybe there were |
| 1:13.0 | issues with our in-laws or my parents or whatever. And the question comes down to, wait a second, |
| 1:20.0 | we are in this together. We are going to do this God's way. We are going to cleave to each other. |
| 1:25.3 | We're going to forget the past, whatever was going on beforehand, |
| 1:29.2 | whoever we were before we said, I do, |
| 1:31.8 | before we made those vows before God. |
| 1:34.8 | And we are going to be someone different after that. |
| 1:38.3 | So today is the second half of my wonderful, wonderful interview with Ruth Buses. |
| 1:45.4 | And she, again, has a fantastic first half. |
