25th Wedding Anniversary

Dear Jo and Mar,

I feel a certain admiration especially from couple who in a span of 25 years are totally sincere in aligning themselves with God and in enlivening and animating their faith.


Jo and Mar, you gave me your preferred readings for your 25th Wedding anniversary.  I think that the readings you chose contain the blueprint of your marriage for the next 25 years.  You have started out correctly; but the next is yet to come and the keys for success in your marriage could probably contain the following:
   1. The perfection of the love you have for one another and the love you bestow upon your children is the same love Christ has for you.  Keep the flame of God's love in your hearts.
   2. On the more practical side, this love entails genuine communion to make it work - being one heart and one mind.  You all belong to Christ, why should there be disunity in the family?
   3. Bear in mind the next 25 years till eternity in heaven.  By now you realize that you are the primary instruments of His love for the world.  Serve him and do not wait to be served.  Serve him in the Church.  Orient the children about the beloved of the Lord.  Serve the Church.

I would be looking forward to your golden wedding anniversary.  But eternity may be at this moment.  Live in God and live in love right now.  Happy 25th anniversary!
