MY DEAR SPOUSE...
1. The vows I made to you, I meant every word; it was not for show
2. If ever I fall short in honouring those vows, remind me. The vows are to keep me in check
3. I made my vows to you, not to my phone. I will not defend my phone while using it to hurt you
4. I made my vows to you, not to your parents or my parents. It is not their opinion that matters but our commitment to each other
5. I made my vows to you, not to my friends. My loyalty is to you
6. During dark times when it is easiest to quit, I will remember my vows and stay anchored in the purpose of our marriage
7. When another comes to tempt me to look away from you, my vows to you will lead me not to fall
8. My vows I made to God and to you, may God hold me accountable
9. The vows I made to you are not wavering or to be edited when you have bad days or fall short, it is my commitment to you
10. Please hold the vows you made to me dear, as I hold the vows I made to you in high regard
11. May God give us the strength and grace to uphold the vows we made to each other daily
Blessed I am to love the same person I choose to love years ago. You are still the one
