00:00The two constituent elements of marriage and family are
00:27Love and procreation
00:31The first one is fundamental; it can never be missing.
00:36If there is no love, there is no marriage, there is no family
00:41But love must be understood in the light of Jesus Christ
00:45As beautifully expressed in a hymn by the apostle Saint Paul
00:50In the first letter to the Corinthians
00:52In which she talks about this love that has many facets
00:56This love that knows no limits
00:59That forgives without limits
01:01Believe without limits, hope without limits
01:04This love that we have is certainly always small
01:09It is always limited
01:11It is especially important to value this in spouses and families.
01:16Love
01:17Without him, it is very difficult for the marriage to last.
01:21And that the family is united
01:24But there is also a second constitutive element of marriage and family
01:30What are children?
01:32This gift from God
01:34Not all husbands necessarily receive it
01:37But everyone is called to live life to the fullest.
01:42Also their fatherhood and motherhood
01:45Thank God
01:47Many married couples who do not have biological children
01:50They decide to adopt them
01:52And give them the love that children deserve
01:55What a great act of charity and love
01:58It is when the spouses
02:01They also seek to live
02:03That feeling of fatherhood
02:06And maternity
02:07Adopting the children
02:09Children who are adopted
02:12And they live in a space
02:13Where a dad and a mom love them
02:16They will live life to the fullest.
02:17In harmony
02:19And they will have the possibility
02:20If found
02:22With God's love
02:23Love
02:25And life
02:26These are the elements
02:28Constituent
02:29From a marriage
02:31And from a family
02:32May all spouses love each other
02:34That all husbands
02:36Receive with love
02:37The children that God gives them
02:39And when for some reason
02:41It is not possible to have biological children
02:44There is the path of adoption
02:46So important and necessary
02:48At the moment
02:49Thank you!
