A beautiful 14th Anniversary Gift- July 7, 2015
"Love is patient, love is kind.
It does not envy, it does not boast.
It is not proud.
It does not dishonor others,
It is not self-seeking,
It is not easily angered,
It keeps no record of wrongs.
Love does not delight in evil,
but rejoices with the truth.
It always protect,
always trusts,
always hopes,
always perseveres."
1 Corinthians 13:4-7
It was no accident or coincidence that I was asked to read those verses at my niece, Maggie and Chad's wedding this past weekend. I was so touched when Maggie asked me to read it. I immediately remembered that it was the very same passage I read at her mother's funeral in 1998; but she had absolutely no idea. Vic knew her time on earth was coming to an end and planned her entire funeral. She wanted us to hear these words... and never forget. To say it was difficult to read at the wedding is an understatement. I don't think anyone knew what I knew, and I could barely get the words out. My sister was definitely at her daughter's wedding in Spirit.
I believe with all my heart that God wanted me to memorize them not only for Maggie, but for me as well. Today, on our 14th Anniversary, I need to really hear these words more than ever.
Thank you, God for this God-wink. It was a beautiful gift.
xoxo
