The Wedding Blessing

Òàòüÿíà Ìîðîç 2
My dear son,

Your childhood is gone…
I am getting older too… The years have been awesome…
It seems just yesterday your life has begun
And now you’re the groom and the bride in blossom.

Today is the day when dreams come true.
Your family is born and love is living proof,
Where two hearts decide to be one,
May God create an undivided bond.

You’re standing at the altar with your love,
The sweetest girl God grants you from above…
Congratulations… Flowers… Friends around…
The sound of music and the wedding vows…

There are few things I want you to remember
Cherish your love with God’s wisdom and tender.
Your sweetheart is the only precious vessel,
Please, don’t forget your mom’s important lesson.

Sometimes life would bring a strange surprise,
But you press on to win the highest prize,
Remember, dad said: “God is in control,”
Invite Him to be in charge of all.

And always treasure your amazing bride,
Give up self-love, self-pity, selfish pride,
And be diligent in learning how to yield,
How to honor your wife,  and be her shield.

One more thing you need to keep in mind –
The greatest love forever must be blind,
It will forever love, forgive, and wait,
Be patient, be honest, don’t forfeit.

The Bible gives instructions and advice,
Study His Word together to be wise,
And from the deepest bottom of my heart
Be blessed… be loved…God bless your start…

With Love,

Your Mom
