Renewal of our vows to God and each other 12-27-15

http://bible.com/111/1co.13.1-13.niv If I speak in the tongues of men or of angels, but do not have love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing. If I give all I possess to the poor and give over my body to hardship that I may boast, but do not have love, I gain nothing. Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away. For we know in part and we prophesy in part, but when completeness comes, what is in part disappears. When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put the ways of childhood behind me. For now we see only a reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known. And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love. 

Thank you God for such a special day. Thank you for the renewing of our marriage. Thank you for your perfect timing! Thank you for changing our hearts long before the mission trip and this entire year. May we always be open to receive you! Thank you that we are a new creation in Christ! Thank you for your love, mercy, grace, and forgiveness. Thank you that we are reconciled to you through your Son Jesus, thank you that we are reconciled to each other. Bring people into our lives that need to hear this message that brings freedom, that we have been given the fullness of Christ. Thank you for surrounding our lives and marriage with believers of you Christ. Thank you for blessing us with a new beginning. Hallelujah for your miracles! I pray we would never forget where you have brought us from and to and that you will continue to show us our identity in you Jesus as we focus and keep our eyes on you! Thank you Holy Spirit for teaching and guiding us, for empowering and showing us the way! I love you God and I’m just so thankful. Amen!
