It will not create a relationship that does not already exist. Love is patient and is kind. Love is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered. Love keeps no record of wrongs. It does not rejoice in evil, but delights only in the truth.
Love always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
Love never fails. It is a high and lofty one, but the only one worthy of our efforts. I invite you now to state publicly your resolution to live out this kind of love. Since you have both stated your intentions to live together in love, and you have heard the love you profess defined by the scripture, I invite you to turn and, before God, make your vows to one another. I will cherish our friendship and love today, tomorrow, and forever.
