For Joe and Jodie

     From two different places He drew you,

To one where neither of you wanted to go.

Yet His Will and Plan you both obediently followed,

And watched amazed as He lovingly created the union you now share.

     May you continue to center your lives on Him,

As you each pledge one to the other this day.

May His Love always guide you on your journey together,

And His Strength carry you through the darkest of storms,

And may you always know of the prayers offered on your behalf.

     Congratulations on your wedding.

This original poem is presented to Joe and Jodie on the 28th of June, 2003 by Ed Hubbart in celebration of their wedding day.
