The movie The Princess Bride has a wedding scene in which the marrying minister says, Marriage . . . is what brings us together today.
Sometimes it is good to remind ourselves of the grand plan for marriage spelled out in Scripture.
Marriage creates one new family out of two: Adam said, This is now bone of my bones and flesh of my flesh . . . . Therefore a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife (Gen. 2:23-24).
It provides a pure outlet for a divinely designed desire: Because of sexual immorality, let each man have his own wife, and let each woman have her own husband (1 Cor. 7:2).
It forms a mutually helpful team: The heart of her husband safely trusts her . . . . She does him good and not evil all the days of her life (Prov. 31:11-12).
Marriage Gods way brings a man and a woman together to honor Him and help society. Celebrate marriage for the ways it brings us together in Gods name.
Oh, jaycee, I am so excited you are going to be a GG next week. May the Lord bless your precious granddaughter Nikki and her baby Braelyn.
Thank you for your prayers for little Brooks..I know that Kami and Glenn are grateful.
We will pray for each other’s relief...(((HUGS)))
I see a spill in the bottom of my fridge. It definitely needs a cleanup, too!

We most certainly will, Meg!
I will try to make a cake today and finish up some things in the house. My niece and family are traveling from Mississippi toward Bristol today for the races. They will go to my son's and come here late Sunday or early Monday. I plan another pot of vegetable beef soup because I can make ahead and hold. With a pan of cornbread and cake, that'll do it....LOL!
Cute....wish I could do that today!
Your meal for your niece and family sounds yummy! I woke up before it was time..
What a lovely kitty Kat!!!
LOL.
What a beautiful cat! Thank you! Is NASCAR today? Hope you have a good day!
Good morning Meg, I got such a chuckle seeing that cute kitty relaxing. Almost feel like joining in!!!! Hope you have a good day, too! Sorry the weather is not so good!
I LOVE Michael Buble! And, that song is purrrrrr-fect to go with your graphic!
(your FIRST hyper-link! YAYYYY!)
LOL~~~
The big race is tomorrow but other smaller things are happening today. Glad I’m home....LOL! When I went to the store yesterday and they were out of my orange juice and I jokingly said to myself...”those Race people bought all my favorite juice”....LOL!
Thank you Meg. I am counting down the days until she comes home.
We had 3 inches of snow overnight!
Pretty.
It’s melting fast.
Happy Caturday ALL!
