Today I watched my sweet friend, Marye Audet become Mrs. Marye White. It was a simple, but beautiful wedding. Mark and I offered to video the wedding ceremony and some of the reception happenings, but as I stood across the room from him during the ceremony, I couldn't help remembering back...
June 24, 1995, I became Mrs. Mark Finley. I was so blessed by the Lord with Mark. As I watched Marye and Marc take their vows, I couldn't help thinking back to ours. I promised to love, honor and cherish him, through all the days of our lives...for richer or poorer....in sickness and in health...for better or worse until death do us part. I love Mark more today than I did that day I said "I do." We have grown together in so many ways, and we definitely aren't the same two "kids" we were then. I have learned so much about him and about his commitment to me in the 15 years we've been married. We've been through some hard times, some good times...still, we are determined that they will all make us stronger. Our marriage is so much stronger and our fatih in the Lord and each other hasn't ever been shattered.
So, as I looked across the room at the wedding, I realized that I love him more than ever...that I am forever grateful that the Lord chose him to be my helpmate and me for his. I can't imagine what my life would be like without him, and I never want to know. Thank you Lord for bringing Mark into my life and letting me to keep him.
