Ecclesiastes 4 and began reading. “Two are better than one; because they have a good reward for their labour. For if they fall, the one will lift up his fellow: but woe to him that is alone when he falleth; for he hath not another to help him up. Again, if two lie together, then they have heat: but how can one be warm alone? And if one prevail against him, two shall withstand him; and a threefold cord is not quickly broken.”
He handed Courtney and Everett the two unlit candles. “It is good that the two of you have each other to help you through the terrible times that are about to fall upon the earth. You’re going to need all of the help you can get. But don’t be deceived. The enemy has long perfected the art of planting seeds of division in the hearts and homes of even God’s most devoted. To keep your marriage strong, you need that threefold cord which is
not quickly broken. If the two of you will weave your lives around your relationship with God, dedicating time each day to prayer and reading his Holy Word, you will have a three-strand cord that can withstand all trials. Everett and Courtney, place the wicks of your candles to the lit candle which represents the Spirit of God and your willingness to be bound to each other through him and this covenant you are committing to, here before God today.”
