Vows From The Heart

By angela kay zea •
(husband's name), I thank God for sending you into my life. It is said that from the beginning even before we were sewn into our mothers womb that God would send the husband He specially created just for us, the future wives, and only at the time in our lives when it was meant to be just at the perfect time and place. God made our paths cross so that we could bring strength to each others weakness, bring joy to each others sorrow and be sunshine to each other after the rain, and in perfect love after the storms to create our own rainbow of colors, warmth, love and compassion.
Just as God has his Angels to mount up like eagles wings, we now ask you our friends and family to rise as we exchange our vows and deep felt emotions to each other, because everything in life that is important should be raised up.
I _____ (bride) take you _____ (husband's name) to be my husband, my best friend, my lover and father of my children and to live together with God as our leader and shepard of our lives. _____ (husband's name) I will love you, comfort you, honor and keep only you in sickness and in health, for richer, for poorer, for better, for worse, in sadness and in joy, to cherish and continually bestow upon you my heart's deepest devotion, forsaking all others, keeping myself only unto you as long as we both shall live.
In times of coldness I will snuggle with you and bring you warmth and comfort. In times of sadness I will cry with you and share your pain, I will give you a shoulder to cry on and I will wipe your tears from your face. In times of financial struggle I will remind you that wealth and richness are having each other, loving each other and going through life with each other. In times of quarrels I will not turn my back on you or throw you out of the house, but I will give you your space and I will make the couch your temporary resting place. In times of love I will hold you close and I will be your lover and I will give to you my heart, my mind, my soul and my body. If it is written in the book, I shall give you a child, a child we would make together, half of you and half of me. If you were in harm's way I would gladly lay down my life so that you would be spared all harm and tragedy. In the end when God called you home I would be right by your side holding your hand as you dance with the Angel and as you drew your last breath I would look into your eyes as your Angel takes you to be with God where you will see the place God has made for you and I.
So with this ring, I ____ (brides name)do thee wed _____ you (husband's name) on this day of beauty and peace and love in front of God, friends and family and our minister. I love you with all my heart from the beginning to then end. So it is said with a whisper in the wind, on this day I wed you my husband, my lover, my best friend and my love will never end.
