“So they are no longer two, but one. Therefore what God has joined together, let man not separate.” Matthew 19:6
Hooray! I can hardly believe that we are actually married! And it’s even harder to believe that two months have already passed since the big (BIG) day. We enjoyed every moment of our wedding day, we had an amazing two-week honeymoon in Hawaii, and we are so happy to be married and become “one.”
I give thanks to God for all of these blessings. I am so thankful that He, in His good and perfect timing, brought us together to become husband and wife. Love comes from God, and He showed the world ultimate love in sending his Son to die on the cross for our sins (1 John 4). I hope and pray that I can always be thankful for God’s gift of marriage, and that I will always cherish it and nurture it. Even more, I hope that it will be God’s love and grace that nourishes our relationship, fills our hearts and guides our minds.
I know that marriage won’t always be easy. Life isn’t easy, but it is full of God’s goodness and love, when we choose to recognize it.
So many thanks go to my family and friends too. It was amazing to see how much time, care and love everyone put into our wedding day and into helping us prepare for our next stage of life. I will stop here before I tear up… :)
It's time for dinner with my hubby! There will be more life stories to come...
Wise words, Steph! I enjoyed this and it reminded me of some things that I've lost focus of.
