"I Do"

I Love Weddings!  I loved mine own wedding thirty-plus years ago.  I loved my children's weddings, 3 and counting.  And I love to officiate weddings, today was my fifth.

Many preachers joke that they prefer doing funerals because they know that they will stay dead.  I certainly see the humor and the truth in that.   So far, so good, Lord willing, they are all still married.

"I Do" means that I commit myself to this now, and tomorrow and forever.  "I Do" is not an emotional assertion, "I DO" is an act of the will.  So please, all of you that have stood at the marriage altar and proclaimed those words before family and friends, look your spouse in eyes, as soon as you can, and remind them that you "Still Do".
