TWO KEYS TO A LASTING MARRIAGE

Theme: Two Keys to a Lasting Marriage

Fiistt Key - Love (agape)

Second Key - Respect

1 John 4:8

Romans 12:10

Dearly beloved, we gather here today to celebrate the union of Prince & Eunice. As they embark on this sacred journey of marriage, let us reflect on the two keys that can unlock the door to a lasting and fulfilling marital bond.

The first key is Love, and not just any love, but agape love. This is a selfless, unconditional love that seeks the well-being of the other above all else. As 1 John 4:8 reminds us, "God is love," and in emulating this divine love, Prince & Eunice can build a foundation that withstands the tests of time.

The second key is Respect. Romans 12:10 urges us to "Be devoted to one another in love. Honor one another above yourselves." In marriage, honoring and respecting each other's individuality and worth is crucial. It is through mutual respect that a couple can navigate challenges with grace and understanding.

Prince & Eunice, as you stand before us today, remember that your love for each other should reflect the agape love God has for us. Let it be a guiding force in your journey together. And, just as crucially, let respect be the cornerstone of your marriage. By honoring and valuing each other, your union will not only endure but flourish.

May your love be unwavering, and your respect for one another be a testament to the sacred bond you share. As you embark on this lifelong adventure, may God's grace guide your path and bless your marriage abundantly.

Amen.
