To You … With Love

It was hard to keep my eyes off of her beautiful face. The beauty was soft and enchanting and I felt the very joy of her as she stood with her husband.

The white gown sparkled in the candlelit room and I knew I was standing very close to wonder. I thought about her after the ceremony was over and somehow, this small piece of grace, so full of happiness, became for me the accumulation of the many sweet brides I have seen come through the doorway of love.

I reached out to touch them and to say, "Have a good life.!" I knew it would be possible for these two because in a promise of true faith, they gave themselves to each other, for better for worse, for richer or poorer, to love and to cherish as long as life honored their days together.

A simple little note for me said, "Thanks for joining us.!" My spirit smiled for I was just a voice confirming the love which already had made them one.

God bless the young ones and God bless the love that still brings the stars down from heaven to sets them in the face of a tiny girl, full of grace. And so I remembered, with joy, the wonder of love.
