You’re making a covenant before God.Communication — He is not thinking what you’re thinking. Say the thing.Compassion — That annoying tick? It’s what makes them them.Comedy — The first 50 years are a challenge. Then you get to enjoy the next 10.Christ — When you stop arguing and start asking, the answer doesn’t belong to either of you. It belongs to Him.Belonging isn’t just found in a church or a community. It’s found in a marriage — when two people choose each other, over and over, for a lifetime.You belong. This is Dea Irby.
