Wayne’s vows to Chris
Chrissy Pooh,
I commit all my love and faithfulness to you unconditionally.
I promise to faithfully protect you, encourage you and support you in both good times and days of challenge and struggles!
To be your rock, shelter, strong foundation and lighthouse!
Always there to guide during stormy seas, the gales of November and the King tides of the seasons!
May we enhance each other in our weaknesses sharing our unique strengths we possess to help each other when we may fall or stumble.
You are the lightning in my thunderstorm and I am your thunder in yours when you encounter lightning!
Like the lost stars in night skies above,
May we always find our way back home together to shine brightly and twinkle as beacons when we feel we’ve lost our way, but be able to always navigate by the light we shine toward one another like the northern star and light of the moon!
My vows and words I say and write on this day, I take very seriously and they go way beyond words just expressed on paper or expressed by speech, but continually re assured by daily actions of assurance, comfort and in honor and respect that you should deserve from a man this soon!
So before God, before you and before all who stand as witnesses of our oath, vows and promise to each other, I ask that they may be our accountability and strength and bond that binds our tapestry of many strengths together into one unity, one heart and one love!
May our love commitment be like the mighty oak tree that is planted by the stream as a seedling of promise.
May each year that it grows stronger and taller remind us as we age and grow stronger to together, and it’s resilience no matter the weather!
Its branches and colors, the hope and promises that constantly change, grow, mature and reach out to ventures in the new chapters and directions of our never ending untold story of our life we write together in the midst of storms, winds of change, thru sadness and hardships and in celebrations of joys and overcoming and conquering darkness with light laughter, humor and smiles of joyful giving to each other and to those around us we know as friends and family!
May our friendly fireflies and lightning bugs light our path and journey and every single step of way thru the woods, streams, meadows and lakes we traverse in our travels.
May your words of kindness be the sonnet of my poems reminding you of every tender touch as a constant reminder that is never taken for granted;
However remembered as priceless treasures worth more than silver or gold!
It’s in all these signs wonders and supernatural gifts we share together be with us forever as we grow old!
When I am away, know that I will be here and always near….
I am your heartbeat no matter the weather when skies are gray or blue and clear!
I am the wind the blows as a gentle breeze against your face and hair as sea mist with her refreshing touch and my breath upon your neck and shoulders!
Take my hand and never let go as I hold yours in mine,
Know it’s the strength and glue that holds our hearts together as one that cannot be undone!
A new story and a brand new chapter has been written in the sands upon the beach we now trod together!
And the best is yet to come from storms that fade to sunnier days and weather!
To cherish and hold these days as precious and priceless in our many ending years we continue to share.
It’s never too late for new beginnings and starting over and showing we care!
You are my lucky penny I always hold and I, your four leaf clover!
At this special place and time,
may it be the place we always go back to remember and reminisce as our own design…
Restoring and renewing daily in our minds and hearts place that became our turning point our anchor, our solid rock and lighthouse of His light, power and glory and everlasting love that forever seals our fate and predestined sunshine brightly shining, always, no matter the storms or gales upon the seas before us!
When we remember and reflect upon this special pact with written words and those spoken and exchanged oath; are not about others opinions, manipulation or control, but about us our freedom to choose, to freely live, choose life together and have the blessing from our eternal creator and all the manifested plans He has chosen and wants for us!
May you also hold sacred keep secret the things that preserve and protect our sanctity of marriage as a pure and holy throne keeping all evil and darkness out!
May His light and His glory shine and resonate upon all hearts this day as inspiration, hope and encouragement that love surely does conquer all!
I love you and care and share with you; even let you hold my glass of wine, but don’t drink just yet, to toast together and say cheers at just the right time!
My soul prayer is to God Almighty to bless, preserve and protect our union from two hearts to one and knowing that strength and bond is in numbers, we are no longer single, not even two but a tapestry woven into three with Jesus at the center! May we celebrate and renew these softly spoken words and promises as a daily reminder and reflection! In His name I faithfully pray on our special wedding day! I love you! Remember our love is unstoppable!❤️🌎❤️
