Dearly beloved, we are gathered here today in the presence of God to witness the union of two people, Frederic and Rebecca in holy matrimony; which is instituted of God, blessed by our Lord Jesus Christ, and to be held in honor among all people.
That was how it all began. Six years ago today. My favorite part of the ceremony is ever changing but today when I read over our vows, the part I love most is this…
Above you are the stars, below you are the stones, as time doth pass, remember….
Like a stone should your love be firm, like a star should your love be constant. Let the Lord guide you in marriage, let the strength of your wills bind you together, let the power of love and desire make you happy and the strength of your dedication make you inseparable. Be close but not to close. Posses one another but be one with yourself. Have patience with one another, for storms will come, but they will pass. Be free in giving affection and praise. Have no fear, for the Lord is with you always.
I have said hundreds of times that I am a lucky girl. Marring Fred is proof of that. To have found someone that allows me to be me and loves me for me is all I ever wanted.
Happy Anniversary Fred!! We made it six years.
