A
famous gospel artist known as Kirk Franklin wrote a song a few years ago
entitled "Love". The beginning lyrics were "Love, a word
that comes and goes but few people really know what it means to really
love somebody." There are so many people who have never had the
opportunity to be loved so we are thankful that we have been granted the
chance to experience real love in one another. God beckons us to show one
another the unconditional, agape love that He shows towards His people.
We enter into marriage not blindly or unadvisedly, but knowing that we
have to continue the work of the kingdom. There are things in this life
that we can no longer do apart, but must become one in order to walk into
our destiny. Please join us as we stand before God and create a covenant
pledging to love and honor one another. We pray that as we enter into this
covenant known as marriage that we will be a walking model of God's agape
love. We want to continue to "Build a House, and Advance the
Kingdom.' We would be honored it you would join us for this sacred
occasion.

1 Corinthians 13:4-7, 13
Love suffers long and is kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not puffed
up; does not behave rudely, does not seek its own, is not provoked, thinks no evil; does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth; bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. And now abide faith, hope, love, these three; but the greatest is love.
