Love Sealed in a Ring of Promise
Jul 30th, 2007 by Paul
My wedding ring is a piece of jewelry that never goes out of style. It seems to always be up to date with the times. I believe it’s always in style because of what it means to me. Last night as I was spinning the ring on my finger, I was remembering our wedding day and what the pastor said about the symbol behind the ring. The ring symbolizes love with no end.
When I look at my gold wedding ring, it reminds me that it’s a commitment of endless love to my wife. The promises I made to her. It also shows me that it’s a promise from God and His blessing on marriage. I honor this love with great respect and take it very serious because of the great love He has for me through His son Jesus.
The ring unites my wife and I as one with God’s blessing. It’s a beautiful symbol to let me know that we are in His favor. I look upon it as God trusting me with one of His precious daughters and expecting me to be the perfect gentleman taking care of her. Loving my wife brings great joy because it is expressing my love to God and I always want to be in His favor.
The ring reminds me of abundant love, a long time commitment, and a promise as stated in the scripture of Mark 10:8-9.
“And the two shall become one flesh; so then they are no longer two, but one flesh. Therefore what God has joined together, let not man separate.”
