This Savior will enable us to hold fast to one another, to love each other deeply, selflessly and faithfully, to live as one flesh, to humbly, joyfully fulfill our God-given responsibilities in this marriage, to escape the serpent’s entreaties, to walk together in the light with our Maker, to be forgiven when we fall, and to join him in overcoming the serpent’s evil designs.
We—my new husband and I—cling to our Savior’s promise that one Day we will experience the full blessings of the new creation, we will be part of a holy, redeemed bride at the Marriage Supper of the Lamb, and we will reign with him in Paradise. Forever.
