The Best Advice

We are thrilled to be planning to go to a wedding this Saturday

and then again at the end of the month.

God has allowed us to have a small part in each day -

providing lodging, providing food, providing a stop-off.

As an "older," and in true "Mr. Smith" style,

hubby and I picked a verse of advice for each couple.

The verse contains their anniversary.

Not only does it give the best advice,

but when we read it through the years,

we are reminded to pray for that couple.

Saturday 5/5

1 Peter 5:5 

Yea, all of you be subject one to another, 

and be clothed with humility: 

for God resisteth the proud, 

and giveth grace to the humble.

Human pride wants its own way.

Humility is crucial in a marriage and ministry.

Service to others and self-sacrifice will yield Biblical success.

In our observation, the couple already possesses a heart of service for others,

and if they carry that into marriage,

God will bless.
