We believe that every day of our lives holds the boundless mercy and love of God. Neither of us deserved such a beautiful life, let alone the gift of each other’s company. We are two sinners whom God found, forgave, saved, and granted eternal life. Now, He has given us to one another—for our growth, for an endless love between us, and for His glory. Many in our modern world have grown disillusioned with the idea of marriage, but God created it to be beautiful, and we are overjoyed to share the beginning of our story, a family bound together by love, vows, and unwavering devotion. May these words be not only the motto of our relationship but also a guiding truth for everyone who cherishes their loved ones: Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice at wrongdoing, but rejoices with the truth. Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never ends. 1 Corinthians 13:4-8
