A man prayed a prayer
I heard today
It made me think
Of this story I read
In "Voice of the Martyrs"
to share
The words
a groom shared
At the altar
The bride to be
Shared in reply
" I love you
So much
With GOD
Being first.
I know I only
NEED Christ.
In those words
I take delight
In knowing
They both
could stand
In Christ
No matter,
come what may.
The next I heard
Was so unique
It makes
Me smile
To think
They said
because only
Christ alone
Was their only need
They did not need
Each another
Because
Christ is all
they truly need
They both declared
They got their wants,
Their hearts desire
Instead
Their hearts desire
To be one together
As
One in Christ
that day
Heart desire
of one another
A want instead of need.
What a powerful
Wedding declare
For all the world to see.
It seems in this
They were truly
Free
One in Christ
together
A WANT
As well as need.
