I never realize a moment has happened until well after it has passed.
I have said my vows with great sincerity and promise,
I have joyfully celebrated our union,
I have taken dominion in his habitat, shaking things up a bit,
but I have yet to realize what all of this is.
I'm pretty sure I'll never realize the panaramics of marriage,
but I breath and I live and I love.
Life is a fast flowing river.
It has swiftly taken me into the arms of commitment.
It's unbelievable that this is where I am at in my life.
It's challenging and unpredictable.
And I love it.
We know where we are for today, but tomorrow is a surprise.
And it's beautiful.
We grasp and cling to our love, our commitment of love, our love that only exists through our
God,
We hold onto one another as we take a backseat to the journey of our life.
Allowing love to conquer fear, pursuing righteousness, celebrating liberation and seeking justice.
The toils of the world--it's promise of perfection, it's emphasis on wordly treasures are not our desires.
We are now giving our life to our God and He is strong and able.
Therefore, we will not fear the uncertainties.
We will not fear pain or tears.
For our God has dressed the fields of lilies better than any girl on her wedding day.
He has given the leaves of the trees veins of life.
And yet, I never realize these things until after I have already had fear and doubt.
So typical of me.
But here's to life, love, marriage, peace, laughter, joy, justice, mercy and happiness.
