Marriage...



Marriage is a vow that two people share,
It starts out with friendship - tender love - and care.
It's learning to give - when to take - and not to lie,
It's being there for them when they need a shoulder onto cry.
It's admitting when you're wrong - and when your spouse is right,
It's talking out your problems - instead of causing a fight.
It's for richer for poorer - in sickness and in health,
Two people come together in God's eyes - He will bless them with wealth.
Thru the good times and the bad - till death do you part,
Trusting in each other with an open and honest heart.
So if you're thinking marriage and don't know where to start,
Just ask Jesus to come into your life and follow His heart.
