Yesterday, I randomly asked KO what his favourite part of our wedding was. I was expecting him to say something like when he first saw me in my dress but his answer brought a smile to my face. He simply said, "our vows". That is my favourite part as well.
A vow is more than some fancy words thrown together, it is a promise made with God as a witness and each day we live together is marked by these vows.
I woke up today and simply made another vow to him. I told him, " I promise to see you each day as God did when he created the first man. God said, it is good. Each day, I see you and I say, "you are good"
Before we came up with our vows, we spent hours studying about vows. Ironically, our wedding sermon was about vows.
Below, is my vows to my King. One day, when he permits me, I will share his vows here too
> Kwabena, sometimes right in the middle of an ordinary life, God gives us a fairytale.
> You are my fairytale, My one simple reason for believing in true love.My secret dream which came true
>
>
> Today, I stand before God, our families and friends, to promise to love you faithfully as long as we
both shall live.
>
I vow to help you love life,
To have the patience that love demands,
To speak when words are needed
And to share the silence when they are not
I promise to accept you just as you are...
> And challenge you to be the best you can be
>
> I promise to be your bestfriend,
And to live in the warmth of your heart and always call it home.
So today, I ask for your all for keeps.
To make more memories with you as you take your place
As the king of my castle, the herald of my future and the father of our legacy
> I love you and always will. Every day, all the time and always.
For the rest of our lives together... This is my solemn vow to you.
Awwwwwww..... and may God help you both!!! Amen!!!
