Vows with a Ring to It

Remember when the children of Israel crossed over the Jordan and entered the Promised Land? Do you remember what God instructed them to do next? He instructed them to pick up and set up 12 stones from the middle of the river, the same river mind you that He caused to stop flowing so they could cross over, as a reminder of this miraculous event. Why? God wanted the children of Israel to pass down to their children the story of God's miracle, He wanted those stones to serve as a memorial of His mighty acts towards them. Joshua 4:6-7

Have your children ever asked you about the stones in your wedding ring? Could you go stone by stone and tell them of the vows that you and your mate have made to one another or of the many times God has helped the family? Share with them the goodness and faithfulness that God has shown you in your marriage. We tell our kids that all the time, how we depend totally on God and His Word to help us through the good times and the challenging times. They are taking special note of the goodness of God because we have made it our business to show them with God, Marriage Is Marvelous!

Why not meditate on your vows and memorize them. Think about the promises you made to your spouse, those unconditional promises I might add. (-:
As you meet other couples and they begin to talk to you about different things going on in their marriage you can encourage them to remember their vows too. Psalm 119:11 says, Thy Word have I hid in my heart that I might not sin against You. As we go through this wonderful journey with our mates let's keep fresh in our hearts and minds what we promised them before God and continue to walk it out with all the love and passion that we came into our marriage with.

Have a great weekend Visitors, FB & Twitter couples & make each moment you have with your spouse special!
