Heavenly Father, we thank You for Your presence here today.
Holy Spirit, I pray that You will be the one that takes control of this service.
I thank You for each and every member of families and friends that are here, gathered here to
witness this ceremony.
We thank You for Your presence once again, and we ask it in Jesus' name, Amen.
I spotted you in the distance at church one day, and I knew you were what I was looking
for.
The next Sunday, I purposely walked in front of you right after church pretending to be
on my phone, and attempted to make eye contact with you, and you paid me no mind.
I stayed persistent, and I hoped I'd see you again.
Until one day, I got a phone call from a friend who said he was going to hang out with you
and some friends, and I wanted to go and finally meet you.
I dropped everything I was doing and went straight over.
From the moment I introduced myself to you, I felt like a little kid who had seen the most
gorgeous girl for the first time ever.
And that day, La Fuerza was born.
I remember the first time I saw you, I wanted to say I love you.
We were on one of our famous adventure dates, and you were making me laugh so much.
We were clicking so well together, and I just felt so comfortable with you that those words
just almost got me.
I held those words back because I knew I needed to be patient and praying.
I wanted to make sure that what I was just about to say wasn't because it felt great
to be with you that day.
It proverbs 423 says, above all else, guard your heart for everything you do flows from
it.
I lived by that verse as a young woman because I couldn't handle letting my guard down and
getting hurt anymore and becoming bitter, but then I met you.
And God needed me to learn that there will be no one in my life, there will be a man
in my life that I won't have to do that with, my husband.
All the things that I prayed for over and over again, that was you, here the man who
stood by me every time I was in the hospital for all my sicknesses, here the man who's
treated me with patience and understanding.
He have gone above and beyond so many times to show me how much you love me.
So now looking back at that time that I was going to flip and say I love you is because
I already knew deep down you were the man I wanted to send my life to.
So when we exchanged those words together for the first time, I was so relieved you
felt the pain.
Starting today until forever, I promise to love you more and more each day.
I promise to listen and be by your side through every trial that comes our way.
So now I vow to you, to always love you, honor you, support you, cover you and always
try to be the woman of God who wants me to be as your wife and I will never hold this
force back from ever again.
I promise to listen and be slow to speak, I promise to encourage you, I promise to be
the man that God has called me to be.
So I love you, I'm so in love with you, I will make sure that another day goes by that
I won't say that even through the struggles I will remind you of how much I love you
and that is what I promise to you.
Kristin, I love you, I cherish you with all my heart and I can't wait to begin this journey
with you.
¡Fuerza o vida!
