Something True


Today, I am thankful for God's wisdom....always higher than my own....giving me causes and goals and I am especially grateful for a person to keep learning to love in Bradley Dean Foster.  Happy 15th Anniversary, Brad!  I love you!  I was thinking today I would share a marriage blessing that touched me deeply.  If you are married, I pray this blessing for you as well!

A Marriage Blessing

May your marriage be beautiful.  May it remind you often that God gives good gifts.  Very good gifts.

May people look at your love and see that there is a God and He is awesome.

May you show the world - and the Church - that it's not about submission or obedience or "who's in charge."  That in your love and mutual submission, you will race each other to the bottom.  And when you get to the bottom, may you find love, wholeness, joy, peace, and life.  In other words, JESUS.

May you laugh often.  At each other, with each other, because of each other.  And if and when God fills your home with children, may you sit around the table and laugh and laugh and laugh.

May you taste heaven when you taste each other.

And when you walk through the shadowlands, and you will walk through the shadowlands, may the One who led you together continue to lead you together.  He is the Creator of the soaring mountaintops and the scary valleys.  May He sustain you and remind you.

May this year be the best year of your marriage....until next year :)  May you experience the intense joy of being known, deeply, and the great honor of truly knowing another.

May your love, promised and given, echo into eternity.

May people hear your stories and testimony, witness your love, and say from now until forever, "Look at what the Lord has done!"
