"And whatever you do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through Him." Colossians 3:17. We pray that our marriage will be God-exalting and reverent of His Word. The Bible is the very foundation of life. It is "breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness." 2 Timothy 3:16-17. We desire to build our lives on the text of Scripture, forsaking all other wisdom for Christ. We ask that you would join us in praying that our marriage would be a picture of Jesus' love for His bride, the Church. We pray that the Holy Spirit would use the wedding's preaching of the Gospel to convert the lost, sanctify His church, and glorify the Trinity. Moreover, we pray that God will use our lives and our marriage for His kingdom, for He is "the Way, the Truth, and the Life." John 14:6.
